Benois Family Museum

Interesting

Located in the depths of the square, along Pravlenskaya street. Dedicated to the famous family who made a huge contribution to our culture.

Great museum

Creepy scoop in terms of attitude to visitors. Everywhere you can not go, there are motion sensors that begin to twiddle, even when you just approach them, after which several of the guardians are attacked by you with threats to expose them from the museum. And although the museum itself is quite interesting and excursions are interspersed, but the attitude spoils the whole impression
