Visit it!
Watch the prices...in Russia, prices tend to fluctuate. You can get discounts at the State Historical Museum and other museums with the ISIC student card, but they're not always generous (as was the case at St Basil's Cathedral). They've obviously made an effort with the design - each room is designed in the style of a different era - but the collections presented are quite poor. The exhibits cover the Stone Age to the present, but all the explanations are in Russian. If you have time, visit it.
