The three-storey building housed living quarters, wine cellars, shops, barbers, as well as a hotel, which the famous French writer Alexandre Dumas ranked among the best in Russia.

Gostiny Dvor is a monument of history and architecture of the early 19th century, built by the Yaroslavl provincial architect P. Ya. Pankov on the site of the market square. There are suggestions that Pankov consulted with Karl Rossi when designing the buildings, or that the author was Rossi himself, who was working in Tver province at the time.

Vlasyevskaya (Znamenskaya) Tower is a former fortress tower in Yaroslavl, one of the three surviving towers of the Zemlyanoi City. The first name of the tower comes from the nearby ancient Vlasyevskaya Church, the second – from the Church of the Sign, attached to the tower from the east side in the middle of the XIX century. There are many historical facts and urban legends associated with the tower.

Znamenskaya (Vlasyevskaya) tower

The chapel on Yekaterininskaya Street (on the territory of the Mytny Market that existed here) was built in memory of the miraculous rescue of the family of Alexander III in a train wreck on October 17, 1888. In Soviet times, the chapel housed a Beekeeping store, a dry cleaning and dyeing workshop. In the late 70s, when the three-story building of the Yaroslavl regional party committee began to be built nearby, they were going to demolish the chapel altogether. However, Yaroslavl architects and city defenders managed to defend the monument.

Volzhskaya Embankment: a journey through the epochs

The Assumption Cathedral is located on the site of the oldest stone church in Yaroslavl, founded in 1215. During its history, the temple burned and was destroyed several times, in 1937 it was blown up, and a park was laid out in its place. Today, the arrow of the Volga and Kotorosli is decorated with Yaroslav Uspensky Cathedral, restored by the millennium, with white stone walls, golden domes and rich tiled decorations. The cathedral houses several revered shrines – the relics of the holy Princes Basil and Constantine of Yaroslavl, as well as Fyodor Cherny and his sons, and a list of the Yaroslavl Icon of the Mother of God.

Памятник Николаю Алексеевичу Некрасову

The basis of the museum is Orlov's collection: Russian and foreign porcelain of the XVIII–XX centuries, cast iron, silver, household items. Porcelain plastic from private Russian factories of Gardner, Kuznetsov, Popov, and Miklashevsky is of particular value.The building of the House of the Society of Doctors itself is also interesting – a federal architectural monument, restored with private funds in 2014-2018. Its appearance recalls the first third of the 19th century, but the history of the mansion is more complicated: its roots date back to the 17th century, and the basement of the building with storage chambers has been preserved from this period.
