If you happen to ever visit St. Petersburg, make sure you’ll have time to go to the Museum of Water!
In this this article, we’re going to show you the main exposition, the history of the water supply system and the sewerage system and ‘Underground St. Petersburg’. So, let’s begin!


They used an old underground water reservoir as a room for the main exposition. The history of the water supply system and the sewerage system are shown in an old water tower. As for the ‘Underground St. Petersburg’, you’ll find this exposition in a building next to the water tower.

cool museum.
I hope they have cameras on those manhole covers. Someone might steal them.
You haven’t lost your irony. Russia has a monument to rain. The U.S. has a monument to pain: it’s Wall Street.
Soviet Union had plenty of monuments to pain too. They were everywhere. Statues of Comrade Lenin and Stalin to name a few.
That’s what a museum SHOULD look like!
Life on a Mobius strip is a pain in the neck.
You have a “warped” sense of humor.
Very Interesting, thanks!
