The Sakhalin Regional Museum of Local Lore (Russian: Сахалинский областной краеведческий музей), also known as the Sakhalin Regional Museum, is a museum in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk on the island of Sakhalin, Sakhalin Oblast, Russian Federation. It is the largest-scale museum in the federal subject. The Museum collects, researches, and displays materials relating to the natural history, archaeology, history, and ethnography of the region. The first museum on Sakhalin opened in what was then the military post of Alexandrovsk in North Sakhalin in 1896. A number of exhibits disappeared when the area was in Japanese hands, in 1905 and again between 1920 and 1925. The museum reopened in 1932. Meanwhile, in South Sakhalin, in the years when, as Karafuto Prefecture, it formed part of the Empire of Japan, the official residence of the garrison commander initially served for the Karafuto Agency Museum (樺太庁博物館), a situation that lasted until 1935, when the building was repurposed for the Toyohara Military Police.: 138 : 82 More information...
