Let's spend this day like real St. Petersburg aristocrats – visit the Yeliseyev Merchants store and the Faberge Museum, "Suppliers of His Imperial Majesty's Court."
The Yeliseyev Merchants Store is waiting for you — an iconic landmark where resplendent luxury meets gastronomy! On the tour, along with the incredible history of this majestic building, you will learn about the fate of its legendary owners— the Eliseev family.
You will follow the life of the store through different eras — before the revolution, during the Soviet era and today. And most importantly, you will find yourself in a grocery store closed from prying eyes, where time seems to have stopped.
You will be surprised how the store, founded more than a century ago by Grigory Eliseev, became the first shopping and entertainment complex in the Russian Empire: after all, the trading house offered visitors not only a huge selection of colonial goods, fine delicacies and the best wines, but also a restaurant and even a theater!
The session duration is 60 minutes.
Visit the Faberge Museum, which will open the doors to the treasury of jewelry art, where the world-famous collection of Faberge Easter eggs created for the imperial family of Russia shines!
Imagine the splendor of the "Coronation" Easter egg, sparkling with platinum and gold! And the delicate Easter egg "Lilies of the Valley" contains miniature pearl flowers, diamonds, and a surprise in the form of hidden portraits of members of the imperial family!
Faberge's Easter masterpieces are works of art filled with meaning and emotions. After all, they are associated with the most important events in the life of the imperial family and preserve the memory of significant events in the history of Russia.
And that's not all! You will also admire many other luxurious decorations created in the workshops of the brilliant Faberge master. After the tour, you will be able to taste a unique dessert in the museum's cafe.
The session duration is 60 minutes.
