Museum of Local Lore

The Fergana regional museum of local lore is one of Uzbekistan's oldest museums. The agricultural and industrial exhibition that took place in 1894 in the city of New Margelan, now Fergan, was the impetus for the establishment of this museum.

The museum's exposition at the time consisted of a portion of a collection from an exhibition as well as objects donated to the museum by various individuals. However, in its first two years of operation, the museum had amassed approximately 1200 objects and books by 1897.
