Vladimir the Great
Today you will visit the city, which along with Kiev was the "mother of Russian cities". You will see the icons of Andrei Rublev and Daniel Cherny, visit the tomb of the Vladimir princesses and see the magnificent stone carving; you will learn how the medieval city looked like and through what gates the princes entered the city after their victories.
And there is also a wooden merchant's manor waiting for us!

Ganshin Manor Museum
Museum
Open Details
This estate is unique! Above all, the material from which it is built. After all, have you seen a lot of wooden noblemen's and merchant's estates? I don't think so! After all, wood is a combustible material, and the manors burned.
This estate belonged to A. A. Ganshin - one of the representatives of the famous merchant family. Here you will learn more about this merchant family and hobbies of the owners, walk along the alleys of the old park, stand under an oak tree, which is more than 200 years old.
And if the weather allows, you can play croquet in the museum.
Be sure to order the tour in advance.
Please be careful - the manor isn't open on Tuesdays.

Михайло-Архангельский монастырь
Museum
Open Details
Let's visit the Michael Archangel Monastery.
It was founded back in XIII century. However, only buildings of XVII-XVIII centuries have survived to our days.
The main sights of the monastery are the Cathedral of the Archangel Michael and the Archimandrite's Corps with the exposition devoted to the hero of the Patriotic War of 1812, Prince Bagration. It was in this place that the estate of Princes Golitsyn - relatives of Prince Bagration - was located, and here he was brought to the wounded Borodin. In the museum you can even see the carriage on which he was taken.
