Museum-estate Kuskovo

Kuskovo Estate is a cultural monument of the XVIII century, as well as one of the earliest examples of country residences of Russia for summer holidays. It was designed for majestic receptions, theatrical crowded festivities and celebrations. More than 20 unique architectural monuments have survived to this day. Only here is the only French park in Moscow with wonderful ponds, pavilions and marble sculpture.

In 1919, the estate turned into a museum, and since 1938, after the unified Russian museum of ceramics was transferred to Kuskovo, it was renamed the State Museum of Ceramics and the Kuskovo Estate. Today it is one of the world’s largest collections of glass and ceramics from different countries, starting from ancient times and ending with modernity.

Every year exhibitions and concerts are organized here, ancient traditions of festivities, festivities and receptions are revived.
