The 8 Best History Museums in Presnensky, Central Russia

April 23, 2022 Jeremy Dunfee

The political, scientific, historical, architectural and business center of Russia, Moscow displays the country's contrasts at their most extreme. The ancient and modern are juxtaposed side by side in this city of 10 million. Catch a metro from one of the ornate stations to see Red Square, the Kremlin, the nine domes of St. Basil's Cathedral, Lenin's Mausoleum, the KGB Museum and other symbols of Moscow's great and terrible past, then lighten up and shop Boulevard Ring or people watch in Pushkin Square.

Gorky's House (Ryabushinsky Mansion)

Writer Maxim Gorky's residence from 1931 to 1936, this remarkable home is a stunning example of art nouveau architecture, highlighted by a twisting marble staircase, stained glass roof and flowery mosaic and stucco decorations.

Reviewed By sashphoto - Moscow, Russia

Excellently preserved art nouveau marvel in the center of Moscow. Reason it was kept well - because Maxim Gorky, writer, stayed there during the Soviet times.
