The Scientific and Technical Museum, named after experimental physicist Yevgeny Zavoisky, is located in Office № 246 of the main building of Kazan Federal University.

Today the museum’s collection contains over 5,000 physical devices, including an operating set up for measuring electron paramagnetic resonance and an ultrashort-wave generator on the Lecher line, on which Zavoisky investigated his method of grid currents.
