You started repair? Do you need ceramic tiles for bathroom or kitchen? Or maybe a plumber? Would you like to change the bathroom or the sink?

No, that you. This is not advertising a new brand. This is history. History of the development of ceramics and sanitary ware. That without which a modern person simply can not imagine his existence.

On Moskovsky Prospekt one of the specialized stores hides a full-fledged (if you take into account the quantity and quality of the exhibits) the Museum of Sanitaryware and Ceramic Tiles . Here you can get acquainted with the first samples of sanitary ware (faucets, washbasins, bathtubs, etc.) and the history of creating modern tiles, starting from old kilns and technologies of our days. A professional guide will make a walk around the Museum not only fascinating, but also cognitive.

The museum is very young. It was opened in 2003 with the company & laquo; Technogres & raquo; in Kharkov. The opening of the museum coincided with a significant date & ndash; August 23 Kharkiv celebrated the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the city from the Nazi invaders. On this holiday for the city, the first museum of ceramic tiles and sanitary ware was opened in Ukraine.

Here you can find historical exhibits, ancient technologies for making ceramics, tiles and sanitary ware.

The museum is not in a historical building, which is an architectural monument, as we are accustomed to hearing. Rather, the building can be called a shopping complex. On the second floor is the "Ceramic Tile Salon & raquo ;. The museum has more than 840 exhibits.

The museum, although it tells of the distant history of ceramics, is quite modern. In the people it has already been dubbed the house of Moidodyr or the museum of toilets.

Any building is erected from the first bricks embedded in it. The museum of ceramic tiles and sanitary ware followed the example of the building. It also began with a brick. But not easy. Brick brought one of the priests. It is a historical relic that has remained from the destroyed monastery.
