Untitled comment

Many states of the US and probably elsewhere also have "state historical museums", but they are usually prefixed with the state's name, plus for this one I couldn't find any evidence of usage other than "State Historical Museum" unmodified, so I decided it should "own" this article title, others should link via "(disambiguation)"-type page if necessary.

The State Historical Museum is a museum of Russian history located between Red Square and Manege Square in Moscow. The museum's exhibitions range from relics of prehistoric tribes that lived in the territory of present-day Russia, to priceless artworks acquired by members of the Romanov dynasty. The total number of objects in the museum's collection is in the millions. This photograph of the museum's exterior at night was taken in 2016.
