According to the plans of A.V. Shchusev, an arrival lobby tower was designed on Ryazansky Proezd, through which passengers were supposed to exit into the city. It is also possible that this tower was originally planned as a royal pavilion where Emperor Nicholas II could receive delegations and hold meetings. Shchusev worked on the arrival tower project until the last years of his life. But the tower was built only 50 years after his death, during the reconstruction of the Kazan station in 1987-1997.

Great place for parents and children! Every day, throughout June, children's events will be held in the Tsar's Head!

An excellent, but unfortunately little known place. Until the beginning of September, there is an exhibition of kinetic art “Crossing Space”, which continues the theme opened by “Kinetism” in the New Tretyakov Gallery The entrance is free. Open until 22:00

(Translated by Google) Although the tower is called the royal one, it was built at the end of the 20th century, already during the reconstruction of the station, when instead of the kings, the general secretaries had long been beaten. Now it hosts various interesting exhibitions, mostly free ... (Original) Башня хоть и называется царской, но построена в конце XX века, уже при реконструкции вокзала, когда вместо царей давно уже били генсеки. Сейчас в ней проходят разные интересные выставки, в основном, бесплатные...

(Translated by Google) Appreciated the museum on the territory of the tower, a cozy place (Original) Оценила музей на территории башни, уютное место

The exhibition was interesting. In an interesting place.

Interesting free events And the place itself is beautiful

Unusual exhibitions intertwined with modern ones!

A variety of activities for children and their parents, all for free! We attended a master class on still life drawing, classes in acting, pottery, a social worker with a psychologist on the topic of joy (how to teach children to be joyful by example), met with the famous designer Oksana Tsymbalyuk. It’s a pity we didn’t have time for the puppet show.

This is roughly what I expected from St. Petersburg Hydra) Thank you!

It's beautiful outside! And inside...

Super acoustics!

Very beautiful
