Grand Menshikov Palace
Russia, Lomonosov, Palace Prospect, 48
Description:
Menshikov Palace today is an unusual museum with its own history. The owner of this huge house still causes many ambiguous opinions among modern historians.
However, scientists agree that Alexander Danilovich was a significant commander, a rich aristocrat, and about his life will tell the halls of the palace.
Entrance to the palace is paid. One ticket costs three hundred rubles. The exhibition area is a gallery, state halls, personal rooms and work rooms. Special attention is paid to the chambers of Menshikov’s wife. Beautiful and elegant jewelry, porcelain dishes, wall panels and parquet - all this is fanned by the fashion of those distant times. You can see the portraits of the daughters of Menshikov, who died at an early age.
There is a landmark at the address: St. Petersburg, University Embankment, 15.
