The Museum of the Aksakov Family is located in Nadezhdino village in the Belebeevsky district of Bashkortostan and is a branch of the national museum of the republic. From 1821 to 1826, the writer and literary critic Sergey Timofeevich Aksakov lived here with his family. He is known as the author of the fairy tale "The Scarlet Flower."

Although the original estate has not survived, today visitors can see a reconstructed house that restorers have tried to make resemble a noble estate based on the family's memories. The museum's exhibition tells about the history of the Aksakov family, the biography of Sergey Aksakov, and other notable representatives of the family, such as his sons Konstantin and Ivan, and his granddaughter Olga, to whom he dedicated some of his works.

The museum is part of the Aksakov Historical and Cultural Center, which also includes the 18th-century Dmitrievsky Church, a monument to Sergey Aksakov, and a crafts house where children learn wood carving and painting, embroidery, and wool felting. The museum annually hosts International Aksakov Holidays and poetry festivals.

The lands in this area were acquired in the 1770s by Kuroyedov, the husband of the writer's cousin. He founded the village and began construction of a manor house intended as a summer residence but did not complete it. Later, the estate passed to Sergey’s father, who transferred it to his son.

Sergey Timofeevich remodeled the house for the family's permanent residence. They lived in seclusion, which influenced the character formation of the children, who became notable figures. A fire in the house hastened their move to Moscow, but the estate continued to generate income. Later, his granddaughter Olga settled here, organizing summer houses and a kumys treatment facility, now the S. T. Aksakov Sanatorium.

During the Civil War, the estate burned down, leaving only the foundation. In the early 1990s, the idea of restoring the estate and opening a museum emerged, which was completed in 2002.

The museum consists of four halls, each dedicated to a specific theme. The first hall tells about the history of the village and the Aksakov family, the second about the life of Sergey Aksakov with his family in the estate. The third hall is dedicated to memories of the estate when it was no longer the family's residence but remained a source of inspiration for their creativity. The fourth hall tells about the last owners of the estate, including Olga, who tried to preserve it.
