The house in Zakharievskaya Street, where the First Congress of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party was held in 1898, became a museum in 1923. At the official opening on March 14 of the same year, one of the participants of the congress - Boris Adelman and Pyotr Rumyantsev, the former owner of the rooms where the congress took place.
During the Second World War, the house was badly damaged. In January 1948, it was decided to build a museum on the place of the house where the First Congress of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party was held. Upon the project of architect Ivan Volodko, the same house was restored in 1948, and the museum opened its doors for visitors again.
From 1991 to 1992 the museum was closed. In 2007 the museum was closed for major repair, after which it opened its doors with the new exposition and the exhibition hall. Since 1992, the House Museum is a branch of the National Historical Museum of the Republic of Belarus.
The House Museum is included in the The State Register of Historical and Cultural Values of the Republic of Belarus as a historical monument.
