Participants of the excursion will walk through the centuries-old halls of the exquisite mansion of the Counts Zubov, immerse themselves in its creative atmosphere, and learn about the history of the building, which today houses the Russian Institute of History of Arts. The mansion opposite St. Isaac's Cathedral was built on the order of Count Zubov in the second half of the 19th century. Architect Harald Bosse endowed it with amazing interiors that could once compete in luxury even with the ceremonial halls of imperial residences. Under its last owner, the mansion began to serve as the Institute of History of Arts, where famous writers, poets, theater actors, playwrights, and critics used to visit and give lectures. The guide will take the participants through the most beautiful rooms of the building, help them imagine what they were like during the time of the Counts Zubov, and share interesting facts about the history of the mansion.
