The M.E. Pyatnitsky People's Museum was opened in 1978 and is located in four rooms. The exhibition is dedicated to the life and work of Mitrofan Yefimovich Pyatnitsky (1864-1927), a native of the village of Aleksandrovka, who is known as a collector of Russian folk songs and the organizer of the first peasant folk choir in Russia in 1911.

The museum collection features household items, manuscripts, letters, documents, sheet music, photographic materials, musical instruments, theatrical costumes, peasant clothing, and much more.

Among the exhibits, one can see a large wooden portrait of Mitrofan Yefimovich Pyatnitsky, gifted to the museum on the day of its opening, as well as various materials donated to the museum by the first participants of the choir from the village of Aleksandrovka in the Talovsky district and other people who knew Pyatnitsky. Here are photographs of the choir from 1911, the first concert posters from 1914, a unique phonograph with which Pyatnitsky recorded songs of peasant women from the Voronezh province, the song "The Nightingale," recorded by him, peasant costumes, and a recreated interior of a peasant hut.

Based on archival documents and photographs, an exhibition has been created dedicated to the history of the State Academic Folk Choir named after M.E. Pyatnitsky, the Voronezh State Academic Folk Choir, and the Aleksandrovsky Folk Choir. It features photographs from the 1920s-1930s, gramophone records, song collections, concert posters, as well as commemorative and anniversary medals and badges.
