Hi Nerys, thought you might have spotted some familiar figureheads to match your photos. Certainly is an impressive Museum !

Central Naval museum St Petersburg

I clicked on the Trip Advisor site that jb told us about. Well that was a different museum than I saw forty years ago, magnificent improvement and they even have the figureheads on show. What marvellous models and the quantity of them. There was nothing like that on my physical visit forty years ago. One thing I remember about that trip was queuing up outside to go in and people heard us speaking English, we were pushed to the front and as foreigners, were allowed priority entrance, and went straight in. Anyway thank you jb for bringing this site to our attention.

Cheers, Nerys

For the worlds largest ships models, check this lot out, enter Central Naval Museum St Petersburg (or Leningrad on Google) (click on the pics to be amazed !!👍👍👍😮) If you like model boats, you'll like this! ( health warning, it might make you want to give up😁)

Another site with some better close-up pics with more modern ships
