Very good museum, well preserved, but guide is necessary
(Translated by Google) A historical place that everyone should visit. It leaves a great impression and mixed feelings..... Who wants to have a cheap and cheerful lunch, look at the Ladeiny restaurant and to the right of it in the church there is a dining room (the pastries there are very tasty). Don’t forget to buy Ershov’s book The Little Humpbacked Horse (Tobolsk, the Author’s Homeland) for the kids at the souvenir shop. (Original) Историческое место, где должен побывать каждый человек. Оставляет большое впечатление и смешанные чувства ..... Кто хочет пообедать дёшево и сердито , смотрите на ресторан Ладейный и справа от него в церкви есть столовая( там очень вкусная выпечка). Не забудьте приобрести деткам в сувенирной лавке книгу Ершова Конёк-Горбунок (Тобольск Родина автора).
(Translated by Google) A beautiful place with a view of the lower posad (Original) Красивое место с видом на нижний посад

Reviews

The Tobolsk Historical and Architectural Museum-Reserve is highly praised by visitors for its well-preserved historical significance, offering a journey back in time to the eras of famous figures like Ermak, the Romanov family, Dostoevsky, Mendeleev, Alyabyev, and Ershov. The museum complex includes unique objects such as St. Sophia Cathedral, a bell tower, Ermak’s garden with a memorial stele, and the Prison Castle where Decembrists and political prisoners were exiled. Visitors are impressed by the beauty and impeccability of the Tobolsk Kremlin along with its rich collections spanning ethnography, archeology, paleontology, handwritten books, applied art including bone carvings. The reviews also highlight affordable dining options nearby at Ladeiny restaurant and recommend purchasing Ershov's book 'The Little Humpbacked Horse' at the souvenir shop for children.

(Translated by Google) Been here several times at different times of the year. Every time is good in its own way. When visiting this place, you seem to plunge into the atmosphere of that time when the famous Ermak, the Romanov family, Dostoevsky were here and where Mendeleev was born, as well as Alyabyev and Ershov. The Tobolsk Kremlin amazes with its beauty and impeccability, and on its territory there are many unique objects, for example, St. Sophia Cathedral, a bell tower, a museum-reserve, Ermak’s garden with a memorial stele. Here, not far from the majestic domes of the Kremlin, the Prison Castle was built, where the Decembrists and political prisoners spent their harsh years of exile. In general, I advise you to visit and see everything with your own eyes. (Original) Бывал сдесь несколько раз в разное время года. Каждое время хорошо по своему. При посещении этого места Вы как будто сами окунаетесь в атмосферу того времени когда тут бывал знаменитый Ермак, семья Романовых, Достоевский и где родился Менделеев, а также Алябьев и Ершов. Тобольский кремль поражает своей красотой и безупречностью, а на его территории расположено множество уникальных объектов, например, Софийский собор, колокольня, музей - заповедник, сад Ермака с памятной стеллой. Тут же, недалеко от величавых куполов кремля, построен Тюремный замок, где провели суровые годы ссылки декабристы и политические узники. В общем советую посетить и увидеть все собственными глазами.
