About

What did the shops of tombstone makers look like, where were the workshops located, who was involved in the design of monuments, and what stamps are hidden in the stone? Cemeteries are not only places of memory but also valuable historical and cultural sources. Guests will learn how the masters of tombstone structures worked in St. Petersburg, in which districts their workshops and shops were located, and how stone monuments were designed. Special attention will be paid to the types of tombstones, the diversity of forms, fonts, and stamps, through which authorship and the geography of production can be traced. Where to go in St. Petersburg, we tell on our website.
