Other Hermitage: sightseeing tour of the General Staff

The tour begins in the lobby of the General Staff, where you will be sure to discuss the history of the construction of the building, the architect Carl Rossi, the ministries that were here, and the twentieth century, which radically changed Russian history.

It is hard to believe that this building has changed so much – from the great terror and Moses Uritsky, who worked here, to the present day: it has become modern, airy, filled with light and unconditional masterpieces.

You will visit the most interesting objects of the museum:

• Carl Faberge Hall of Memory;
• Gallery of memory of Sergei Shchukin and Morozov brothers;
• The hall of Auguste Rodin.

You will see paintings and Italian sculpture of the 20th century, as well as the “Red Car” by Ilya and Emilia Kabakov, which opened after restoration.
