Since 1947, the building belongs to the Transcarpathian Regional Philharmonic Society, concerts are held here, and the hall itself ranks third in Europe for its acoustic data.
The Uzh River is an integral part of the local history, which gave the name to the city itself. On medieval maps, Uzhgorod was depicted as a city on an island washed by Maly Uzh and Bolshoy Uzh. Throughout the centuries, the bridge across the river was located exactly where it is now pedestrian bridge, as evidenced by the old piles, in places sticking out of the water.
Uzhgorod fascinates with its embankments, stretching along the banks of the Uzh River, among which the Independence Embankment occupies a special place. It is on this embankment that the Uzhgorod linden alley is located, which is rightfully considered the longest in Europe. The total length of the alley is 2,200 meters, where about three hundred trees are planted on both sides of the road. The alley, along with Korzo street, is a favorite place for walks of Uzhgorod residents, giving coolness, comfort and tranquility.
An interesting attraction of the city is the Czech quarter, built in the 20-30s of the twentieth century. in the style of constructivism. The quarter is especially beautiful in mid-April, when many magnolia and Japanese sakura trees bloom on its streets, giving the city a riot of bright colors and aromas.
The city surprises with many parks, squares and squares where rare plant species grow. The rock garden is interesting. Here, a step away from the hustle and bustle, a stream gurgles merrily, and under the shade of old trees, sitting on a bench, two artists captured in bronze, Adalbert Erdeli and Josip Bokshay, who became the founders of the Transcarpathian school of painting, have a lively conversation.
Church bells are a constant companion of the city's life. This is especially noticeable on Sunday, when the ringing of church bells of churches of different denominations calls parishioners to worship.
The European charm of Uzhgorod is largely due to the church architecture of the city: old Protestant churches of Calvinists and Lutherans, the Roman Catholic Church of St. George (XVIII century) and of course the Greek Catholic Cathedral, the residence of bishops (XVIII century). In 1777, the Austrian Empress Maria Theresa signed a decree on the transfer of the administration of the Greek Catholic Diocese to Uzhgorod. This event turned the city into a center of spirituality and enlightenment for many years.

The museum has a rich collection of exhibits presented in the exposition of the exhibition halls.

A special place in the collection is occupied by a wooden church from the village of Shelestovo, erected by folk craftsmen in 1777.
