Excursions to Gus-Crystal

We offer to make a trip to the capital of glassmaking of the Vladimir region - the city of Gus-Khrustalny, founded in the second half of the XVIII century in the Meshchersky forests. For the story of the guide about the ancient region, which can be called “Jurassic Park”, an hour and a half of the road will fly unnoticed. A sightseeing tour of Gus-Khrustalny gives an idea of the city that grew up around the factory. In the center of the city there is a monument to the merchant and industrialist Akim Maltsov - the founder of the "glass empire". You can see masterpieces of master glassmakers in the Crystal Museum, in the building of St. George's Cathedral, built according to the project of architect Leonty Benois. At the request of tourists, you can add a visit to the market in Gus-Khrustalny to the tour program.

You can also visit the Red Echo Museum.
