There are eight museums in Gagarin.

In the house-museum of school years of J.A. Gagarin there remained everything connected with Gagarin's childhood.

The house-museum of Gagarin's parents is the last place in Gzhatsk, visited by Jurij Alexeevich before his death. Besides, there is the car «Volga» of Gagarin in the garage.

In the cosmonauts house there are two autobiographical expositions: «From the family album» and «Jurij Gagarin's games».

The Gagarins' house-museum in the settlement Klushino is the «cradle» of the early childhood of the cosmonaut. There is a well, known in Russia as «Gagarinskij», in vicinity. Many tourists visit it to «touch the source» of the heroic deed of the first cosmonaut..
