Sculpture "Elyse Kotovich Petersky"

An almost imperceptible sculpture of a charming cat is located on the second floor of the Yeliseevsky deli. The locals affectionately call him Elisha Kotovich of St. Petersburg. There are many legends associated with this cat. One of them says that the black cat sits here in honor of the Shuvalov black pet (it was here in the middle of the XVIII century that the palace of Ivan Ivanovich Shuvalov was located).

It is easy to visit the mustachioed character, just go to the station “Nevsky Prospekt” (exit 3), walk to Malaya Sadovaya Street, wrap on it so that the Eliseevsky store was on the right.

From Manege Square, the route will be similar: walk a little along Italian street, turn to Malaya Marine, walk to the beginning of the street.
