In the center of Suzdal, not far from the Suzdal Kremlin, there has been an unusual Wax Figure Museum since 2004. Before that, from 1994 to 2004, the museum was located in Moscow. Its permanent exhibition was housed in one of the halls of the N. A. Ostrovsky State Museum on Tverskaya Street, and many exhibits traveled around the world. Visitors and specialists always noted the high quality and artistic execution of the figures in the Moscow Wax Figure Museum.

Today, the collection, which includes over 150 wax figures, is located in Suzdal and is titled "The History of Russia in Faces." In three halls, with a total area of over 200 square meters, figures of significant political and cultural figures of Russia from the 9th century to the present day are presented.

The beginning of the exhibition, featuring figures from early Russian history, harmoniously blends with ancient Suzdal. Here, figures such as Grand Princess Olga and her grandson, the future baptizer of Rus, Vladimir the Red Sun, occupy a central place in the first hall. Visitors can also see the chronicler Nestor, who captured the history of Rus, and the artist Andrei Rublev, who created brilliant frescoes and icons. The second hall showcases great rulers of modern Russia, such as Ivan the Terrible, Peter I, and Catherine II, surrounded by outstanding military leaders, politicians, and cultural figures. Events from the Patriotic War of 1812 are also reflected here.

The exhibition of modern politicians is also intriguing, including leaders of the Allied countries during World War II, such as Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt. A significant part of the exhibition is dedicated to great Russian writers, such as Pushkin, Lermontov, Gogol, Turgenev, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Chekhov, Gorky, Mayakovsky, and Yesenin. Outstanding figures of Soviet culture, such as A. Raikin, F. Ranevskaya, A. Mironov, M. Rostropovich, and many others, are also represented.

The collection of wax figures in Suzdal is constantly updated with new exhibits.
