Online tour of the merchant Igumnov's house
French Ambassador to Russia Pierre Lévy invites guests to his residence.
The Igumnov merchant's house, which now houses the ambassador's residence, was built as a true palace, and so it still attracts attention with its unusual shape, rich murals, and arouses interest in its history.
Tour guide Irina Vishnyakova will walk through the halls and tell about the history, architecture, and modern use of the merchant's house.
The Igumnov house is under the management of the Main Directorate of the Department of the Interior of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
