Excursion to the Lord's (Grand) Chamber

The Lord's Chamber is one of the most famous places in Veliky Novgorod. The chamber was part of a large complex of the bishops’ court of the Kremlin, the residence of the bishops since ancient times. It is the only surviving civil structure of the medieval city. Many mysteries and mysteries were solved thanks to large-scale research and restoration work carried out in 2006-2013. The main hall of the Estate Chamber remembers the meetings of the Council of Lords and the boyar court, the words of the decree of the Grand Duke of Moscow Ivan III on the annexation of Novgorod to Moscow in 1478, the arrival of Ivan the Terrible in 1570.

In the halls there are extraordinary items of monuments of jewelry art, small plastic art of Constantinople, Russian and Western European masters. Among them are high samples of the XI - XII centuries, the "golden age" of Novgorod toreutics, associated with the culture of the Byzantine imperial house, the princely and sovereign court. The exhibition includes works of art containing real sacred relics of the Holy Land, revealing the whole world, returned to Christian culture. Some items have no analogues not only in Russia, but all over the world!
