A.T. Tvardovsky Apartment Museum in Smolensk

The Museum-Apartment "A. T. Tvardovsky in Smolensk" is located at house No. 4 on Zapolny Lane, where the poet lived from September 1943 to March 1944, having arrived as a war correspondent for the newspaper "Krasnoarmeyskaya Pravda". The exposition features editions of Tvardovsky's books, his letters, photographs, and drawings by the artist Orest Vereysky, who visited the poet together with the writer Evgeny Vorobyov. It was in this apartment that work on the poems "House by the Road", "Vasily Tyorkin", and "Beyond the Horizon" was carried out. The museum, opened in November 1990, accepts visitors only by prior appointment.
