It offers its visitors to see and learn about the history, life, breeds of horses, about the role played by the horse in the life of the peasants, and to participate in a unique show and to see a horse that knows how to draw.

The Museum was created on the initiative Daria Stranger, his idea builds upon the horses. The history of the working horse is, in fact, the history of Russia with its fabulous and heroic epic horses – the Russians, Vladimir, Soviet heavyweights as well as unique breeds - Bashkir, Vyatka, Yakut, Altai and others that have almost disappeared.

At the courtyard of "Another world" and currently lives nine horses. Each of them has its own history, and not always successful. Someone is sad. A horse named Sonja she – love. In Tutaev from Belarus it was necessary to bring the stallion, but he flatly refused to go without mares – he even chopped up two conenose in the Board in protest. When he was next to Sonya, he immediately calmed down and went on the road. But in Tutaev the receiving party could not take on the maintenance of two animals at once, so Sonia went to Ivashkovo.

Some horses, the owners of the Museum of the working horse Daria Stranger and her husband Alexander had acquired, through the forum of the society for the protection of horses "Equalp". Animals in the Museum is a manual and very affectionate and sociable. Them safe to touch and even iron. But they are all individual, each has its own character, its own history.

The star of the Museum is Orlick, a two year old colt, who took over from his mistress uncontrollable craving for art. Once the foal, who is in his mouth dragged everything, in the teeth was given a brush and showed an easel; Orlik, without thinking, immediately put on the canvas a brush and drew a line. Since that time, the Orlik is a headliner all tours. It even began to call it something else-Osia as a real intellectual. Osia draws on my mood: happy, sometimes, as if doing a favor. When Jack is nervous, it smears out sharp and short, when he is calm, smooth. From under the brush horse is already out of about forty paintings. The most interesting paintings remain in the Museum's collection. Interesting the owners of the Museum include those that are randomly scattered brush strokes you can see any figure. For example, the Museum of modern art was left of the painting: "the Lady dancing the cancan", "Person", "Impressions from breaking the tractor fence". On the last picture is absolutely can distinctly see two lines and a crisp white letter "X". Daria said that the painting was on Easter.
