Kubinka Tank Museum The Russian Kubinka Tank Museum is a museum of armoured fighting vehicle s in Kubinka , just outside Moscow . It has many famous tanks from World War I , World War II and the Cold War . The museum also houses many unique vehicles , such as the Panzer VIII Maus ( a German super heavy tank ) , Troyanov super - heavy tank and a Karl - Gerät alongside single production prototypes from the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany . The museum is derived from the research collection of the Kubinka armour test base , still functioning as such . Most Cold War - era Western tanks are war trophies from Middle East , Africa , Vietnam and Latin America , sent to the armour test facility to test for weaknesses . Foreign visitor restrictions and exhibits . The Kubinka Tank Museum is located on a historically " secret " Russian Army armour testing reservation , staffed entirely by Russian army personnel . Despite the end of the Cold War , and even though all the vehicles are antiques with none still being used by the Russian military , access for Westerners was strictly restricted and controlled due to fears that they would engage in espionage . US citizens were considered particularly suspicious and some websites note " the museum administration cannot guarantee access to foreign visitors " . As of 2013 , entrance for foreigners is possible without any prior registration or permit . The only restriction is that a photocopy of the passport and visa must be handed over at the ticket office ( at least for EU citizens ) . Tickets cost 600 rubles for foreigners plus 600 for photographs or video . Watch out for organised tours to visit Kubinka , they require a fee around 200 - 300€ , and they may also provide false information on the visit possibilities . Kubinka is easily accessible by local train from Moscow ( elektrichka , around 300 rubel for a two way ticket ) , and from the train station take a cab ( 200 rubles one way ) since otherwise you need to cross the Minsk - Moscow highway by foot ( very dangerous ) . The museum hosts unique tanks and other armoured vehicles , around 60 % Soviet and a very wide selection of German WW2 tanks . However , apart from them , you can see some very unique tanks like the only remaining Panzer VIII Maus and a captured English WW1 tank , and several different Hungarian , Polish , Japanese , etc . and western models as well .

Alexios himself married Maria Komnene , the daughter of John II ' s eldest son and co - emperor Alexios . With the rank of " protostrator " , the second - in - command of the Byzantine army , Alexios participated in several military campaigns during the middle reign of Emperor Manuel I Komnenos ( r . 1143 – 1180 ) . He took part in Manuel ' s failed campaign in Southern Italy in 1158 , was governor of Cilicia in 1165 and possibly also participated in the war with Hungary in 1166 . In circa 1167 , however , he fell out of favour with Manuel after being charged with conspiring against him and having previously been criticized for a peculiar act of " lèse majesté " : he had decorated one of his palaces in Constantinople with magnificent pictures of the campaigns and victories of Kilij Arslan II ( r . 1156 – 1192 ) , the Seljuk Sultan of Iconium , and not , as was customary , with the exploits of Manuel himself .

Whatever the truth , Alexios was found guilty and confined to a monastery for the rest of his days . Alexios Axouch had two sons , one of whom , John Komnenos " the Fat " , led an abortive revolt against Emperor Alexios III Angelos ( r . 1195 – 1203 ) in July 1201 , and was killed during it .
