This is a building with a stage on the main square of the lower reaches of the Rosa Khutor resort.
In addition to the museum, the building houses, among other things , a restaurant and an art studio "Tsvetnye Gory", where master classes in painting are held.
The Museum of Archeology on Rosa Khutor is an interactive museum, visiting which you can "take a trip to the past", which comes to life with the help of modern technologies. In the museum, you can rent a tablet with which, when you hover over more than 40 exhibits, the latter will seem to "come to life".
The museum's expositions tell about the history of the Rosa Khutor area and the Mzymta River basin, starting from the Stone Age and up to the Modern era in the context of world history.
In two halls of the museum there are exhibits found during the Olympic construction of the resort: weapons, household items of various eras and other copies of artifacts, some of which can be viewed in their original form with the help of new technologies of augmented reality and 3D modeling.
