Yekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts is the biggest art museum in the Ural region. It was officially founded in 1936, although the history of its collections dates back to the last quarter of the 19th century and is closely connected with the Ural Society of Natural Science Lovers. Later, the museum collections were replenished by the items given by the State Hermitage Museum, the Tretyakov Gallery, the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, the State Museum Fund, and the Moscow procurement committees. Some items were donated to the museum from private collections.
The visitors will see works of art, graphics, sculpture, artistic casting, and applied art, as well as the famous Kasli Cast Iron Pavilion, which is the only architectural structure made of cast iron in the museum collection.
