This is the fermentation tank at U Medvidku. Note that it's wooden and open.

This shot was in some ways a lucky shot, since I like how it looks, in some ways not. Really what I wanted to do was get a shot of that black tanker over by the cantenary mast, as it had, I'm not making this up, GATX markings. Apparently, GATX expanded their operations to Europe some time ago, and I've seen a lot of their stuff rolling around.

Here's a closer view of the tank. The ventilator on top of the turret, to the left of the reenactor, is the main spotting feature of a T-54, as opposed to T-55, tank, at least according to Wikipedia (I don't have a copy of Jane's).

Outside of the museum, they had a number of larger temporary exhibits of what would have been seen on the streets in 1968. One of the most iconic of the artifacts from that time was this Russian T-54 main battle tank, in the center, as well as a 1960's-era Skoda 1000MB saloon (on the left behind the tank), and a 1960's-era Volga police cruiser (directly behind the tank).
