On Friday, November 3, a fire broke out at the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts (Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts), located on Volkhonka Street in the center of Moscow. As the journalists were told in the emergency services of the capital, the roof of the personal collections department of the Pushkin Museum burns.
Ten fire and rescue units arrived at the fire. The Emergency Situations Ministry reported that the fire was completely eliminated. Art and material values are not affected.
According to Interfax, 30 personnel and visitors were evacuated from the building. However, the press service of the museum denied this. They said that in the building at Volkhonka, 10, the exposition is closed. Exhibitions do not take place there, so there were no visitors in the illuminated building.
“The museum is closed for restoration,” said Irina Kostyakova, an employee of the press service of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. The department’s website states that “the main exhibition is closed and thematic exhibitions are being held.”
The Pushkin Museum is one of the largest museums of foreign art in Russia. The museum was opened on 31 May 1912.
