In Pereslavl district, there is one notable object – Pereslavl railway Museum, a private, technical Museum, in which real samples exhibited narrow gauge railway equipment, machinery and various mechanisms of late 19th – early 20th centuries.

The Museum occurred in 1991, when the building cooperative "decor" was purchased by Mironov Vadim Vadimovich.
