I really liked the content of the museum, even many of the exhibits stopped breathing. Really worth a visit. Everything is clean and tidy. The eye is happy. There was also a nice bonus - free admission for schoolchildren. And that's where the downside comes from. If you are calculating the attendance of children at the museum (I had a school group and another child with me), all the staff standing in the halls are talking to each other with mats. In front of the children. At one point, the employee went to warm herself borscht, by the way, we can hear the sound of the meal room, which smelled all over the second floor, and make herself tea, continuing to discuss the dirty news with a colleague.

I recommend you to visit! I liked the museum. Very rich in artifacts, exhibits and information support. There is a lot of military equipment in the backyard. Souvenirs can be purchased inside. The staff is very polite and friendly. As it turned out, after we left the museum, we entered it under closure, but the staff did not even say a word to us that they were closing soon, they sold tickets without any problems and after the end of working hours patiently waited for another 30 minutes until we finished the inspection. We are the grandchildren of the Winners of the Great Patriotic War. We are lucky to keep the memory of those events firsthand. This museum perfectly refreshes, complements this memory and plunges into history. Therefore, it is obligatory for the younger generation to visit! Parents, take your children, explain to them, tell them so that it is passed down from generation to generation! As long as we remember, the feat of our people and our Winners will live forever!

An important and powerful place for the city. Here you can feel the history, learn about the exploits and preserve the memory of the past. A very decent exposition and respectful attitude towards visitors. Thank you for preserving the history of our region! ⭐

For this price, the museum is good: a large exhibition covering the period from the Stone Age to the present day. It's a very interesting technique outside. But I would like to be able to interact with objects more: get into equipment, touch weapons for free, and not for 2 rubles, which costs a photo shoot.

The most interesting museum. I am very pleased with the availability of entrance tickets and the scale of the exhibition composition. I really liked the courtyard with a huge number of military and other equipment. It was especially pleasant when the staff invited me to sit in the cockpit of the aircraft, when they saw my interest and careful attitude to the exhibits

It was May 9th, 2025. We visited it together with the Museum of Criminology. Everything was free. The museum staff were dressed as expected on May 9 in a WWII uniform. The interior of the museum is impressive, especially pleased with the outdoor display of military equipment, the presence of a steam locomotive and the opportunity to get inside some of the exhibits. I recommend it to everyone when visiting Gomel. Thanks

An excellent museum if you visit these places, although it is not large, it will still make an impression. There is a museum of flint next door, too, go there, I can't say anything bad, but for a fee you can take pictures with weapons.

A super museum! I recommend spending money on an excursion where they will tell you about military affairs on the territory of Belarus from ancient times to our time. An interesting exposition, there are unique exhibits. In the courtyard there are exhibits of military equipment from the famous T-34, to airplanes and helicopters!

The child liked it, and I liked it too. The museum lacks a structured presentation and logical exposition. Immersion in history is present, new exhibits are on display for some reason (for example, crossbows and specimens from the 2000s).

I really liked the museum and this one and the neighboring and related to it - the Museum of criminology - the museums are small and cozy, there are many interesting exhibits - everything is described in detail in other reviews. But I have a big question - why is it so difficult to see with a guided tour? It's a day off, there were several people who wanted to go on an excursion with me (except me) - but they called somewhere and refused ... the museum doesn't need money? Everything is so good and excellent financing? It was possible to unite people and take 2 times the amount! When I tried to ask questions to the female girls in the hall, they could not answer 🤷♀️ I really hope that the management will add guides and competent staff to the military museum and the Museum of criminology!

I went to the museum. I read the announcement that "the terminal is not working." Thus, the honor of getting to know the military history of Homel region belongs only to those who have cash in their pockets ... This should be taken into account by everyone who intended to visit this cultural institution.

In the absence of metropolitan splendor and scope, the regional Museum of Military Glory is at a very decent level, performs the necessary functions for its scale. The halls are small in size, of which there are 8, it is noted for its neat condition, emphasized by the careful storage of historical exhibits, most of which are under glass. And military equipment - tanks, self-propelled guns, cannons, helicopters, airplanes, a steam locomotive with an ambulance car - in the courtyard under the open sky. At the same time, as it is easy for visitors to notice, precipitation does not harm the main group of equipment, but a canopy would not hurt cars and a tractor from a small courtyard. The general's uniforms of P.I. Batov and A.V. Gorbatov were placed in one closet - it turned out, interestingly, in rhyme. Exhibits related to the Great Patriotic War occupy their rightful central place, therefore, great attention is paid to Marshals Kostantynych - Rokossovsky and Zhukov, who commanded the First Belarusian Front in different periods. In one of the photo frames inserted in my review, you can see a shirt from Rokossovsky's military uniform in a glass cube (it's easy to guess that the marshal had other shirts during the 4 years of the Second World War, which can be found in some museum). Halls 3 to 6 are dedicated to the events of the Great Patriotic War (Hall 4 - "Occupation regime in Gomel region (1941-1944)", Hall 5 - "Partisan and underground movement, liberation of Gomel region", Hall 6 - "Victory is one for all"), and the first two, as well, like the 7th and 8th, they talk about military affairs from other periods of history (Hall 1 - "The military history of the region from ancient times to the end of the nineteenth century", Hall 8 - "Internationalist warriors"). So, the museum man is NOT WEAK, rather, he is even strong!

It's not a big museum, but it's an interesting one. A pleasant guide who tells interesting stories and answers questions. The museum touches on different eras. Interesting exhibits. In the courtyard there is military equipment, guns, tanks, an airplane, helicopters and even a whole locomotive with wagons. You can even sit in one of the helicopters. (But shhh, it's a mystery))

A gorgeous museum! I definitely recommend you to visit! Despite the small territory, there are a lot of unique exhibits! The staff is very friendly, the price is reasonable, there are discounts for certain social groups of the population. Both adults and children liked it! A visit to this museum should, in my opinion, be included in the mandatory program along with the palace!

Not a museum, but the devil knows what. As if it is only necessary to stuff all kinds of weapons and military equipment, and to hang photos of ALL the officers of the Gomel region, that's the museum of "military glory. Historical references are sometimes questionable (,,700 thousand Belarusians, or 1/3 of the country's population died during the Northern War"???), and, unfortunately, the museum staff does not know a drop of the information that is presented in their hall. They are dissuaded by the fact that they are only caretakers, and they have no right to answer questions. They also don't want to call a researcher. To answer the questions you are interested in, you need to buy an excursion.

I really enjoyed the tour, thanks to Robert, the guide. There are a huge number of weapon expansions of all times. Great attention to detail, I liked the hall dedicated to Afghanistan and the hall of the First World War. There is a lot of military equipment in the courtyard of the museum, which will be very pleasant for children of primary school age. I recommend everyone to visit necessarily.
