The ship’s replica will be part of the wall of one of the museum’s halls. It is being crafted
by artists of the Gromovs studio. They recreate the military vessel by old photographs and
descriptions. The replica is being crafted out of armoured concrete and plaster cast. It will be
decorated with wooden parts and real sails. The work is planned to be finished this week, and the
museum will open in October.
