Andijan Regional Museum of History and Culture

The regional museum of Andijan was set up in 1934, and its main exhibitions now occupy the Jome madrasa in the old centre of the city. The collections follow the history of the eastern Fergana Valley from archaeological finds to modern times, with sections on local crafts, the nature of the region and its farming, as well as several hundred paintings and more than a thousand works of applied art.

Since 1982 the local history department has had a separate building, with a stock of more than 66,000 items. The museum also looks after several branches in the city: the Babur house museum, the museums of the poets Cholpon and Habibiy, and a fine art department. A visit to the Jome complex combines easily with any of them.
