Ethnographic Museum

Esso


You can find out much about the history of the area’s peoples in this well-kept museum in a charming Cossack-style izba (wooden house) set beside the rushing river that flows through Esso. The museum contains some truly memorable old photos. There’s a souvenir shop in a separate building.
