Fedorovsky Town and the workshop of I. Schwartz.
We will begin the morning with a journey through time and travel back to the 17th century and the wonderful Fedorovsky Town. Afterwards, we'll remember tunes from Soviet films in the workshop of composer I. Schwartz and go see the estates where Nabokov's family lived. Nabokov's family lived in and was often a guest of the writer himself. We will spend the night in a hotel on the shore of the Gulf of Finland.

Fedorovskiy Gorodok
The first stop on your journey is the picturesque Fedorovsky Town, a complex of historic defensive and domestic structures. It is currently undergoing restoration work, but you can still walk around its walls in a picturesque park and see the outlines of the architecture of antiquity.

Dom Muzey Shvartsa
There are two modest houses on the territory. The first was built for the family, and the composer's widow still lives in it. In the second one there was a workshop.
Now it is a museum, where nothing has changed since the death of the musician. Tapes, books, stacks of sheet music and a grand piano. Funny thing is that in this studio back in 1979 lived Kurosawa, the director. The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 18:00.

Manor AG Eliseev
The Eliseevs' estate is a rare Art Nouveau building on the outskirts of St. Petersburg. Inside you can walk around on your own, but nothing at all is left of the interiors. The facade of the main entrance is now decorated with graffiti mixed with references to Russian rock heroes.

Usad'ba Nabokovykh. Selo Rozhdestveno.
Nabokov's mother spent her childhood here, and he inherited the house along with his uncle's savings. With this money the young writer publishes a collection of his poems.
At different times the building was a dormitory for students of the veterinary school, a shelter for the German troops, a laboratory, a school. It is great that now there is a modest museum of V. Nabokov in the manor.
The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday from 11:00 to 17:00. You can sign up for an individual visit through the Vkontakte app. To order a guided tour, please call +78137162158
