About the place

Abdulla Avloniy (1878–1934) was a teacher, poet, journalist and theatre pioneer of the Jadid reform movement. The museum began in 1968 in the house where he lived from 1910 until his death, and in 1993 it moved into the building of the pedagogical institute that carries his name.

The display, renewed in 2024, shows his household objects and personal things alongside photographs, manuscripts, newspapers and books that trace his work in schools, the press and the stage. It is a good stop for anyone curious about the Jadids and early twentieth-century Tashkent.
