The Tula Museum of Fine Arts was opened in 1919. The basis consisted of many collections from estates. A large number of works has been donated to the museum as a gift. The collection of Western-European art of the 16th-19th centuries has great artistic significance.
 

These are works of famous masters of Holland (Nicolaes Molenaer, Philips Wouwerman, Jan Vonck, Govert Flinck, Jan van Huijsum) and Flanders (Daniel Seghers, Frans Snijders, David Teniers the Younger).
