It is noteworthy that the estate of the businessmen of the Zvorykin clan, from which the famous Russian-American engineer, Vladimir Zvorykin, descended, was established in the middle of the nineteenth century. The restoration work of the estate will continue until 2024. The Vladimir District Administration intends to allocate for this purpose an amount of 315 million rubles, equivalent to about 4 million dollars.
The area of the museum will increase from 550 square meters to 1,300 square meters, where 10 thousand exhibits related to the life of the famous engineer in Murum will be exhibited, as well as the banquet and lecture hall and the children's technical center.
It is noteworthy that Vladimir Zvorykin (1888 - 1982) was born into the family of the Russian wheat merchant Kuzma Zvorykin and left Russia during the Russian Civil War (1918-1922) to live in America, where he invented the television, fax, scanner, night vision device and other electronic devices.
