St Petersburg - the city of museums

 
St. Petersburg - the city of museums
 

St Petersburg is one of the most astonishing cities on our planet. It's the city of culture, history, parks, palaces, and bridges that managed to amass over eight and a half thousand monuments, more than two hundred of which are museums. Every year, art connoisseurs from all over the world visit Russia's northern capital to witness the treasures of the Hermitage, which houses one of the finest collections of global masterpieces.

‍On July 5th, at 7 pm (Moscow time), the St Petersburg University Representative Office in Spain warmly invites you to an online meeting dedicated to the museums of St Petersburg. In these museums, you can find the most amazing exhibits, from historical monuments to magical artifacts, natural anomalies, and anatomical rarities. The lecture will be given by Anastasia Babaeva, a lecturer in the Department of Foreign Languages in the field of International Relations at St Petersburg University.

Since its founding, St Petersburg has been the center of imperial life and a hub for talented people, so it's no surprise that the city is one of the leaders in Europe in terms of the number of museums. The historic center of St. Petersburg is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, which in itself transforms it into a real open-air museum. In addition, St. Petersburg hosts museums catering to any taste and interest, and you may not even be aware of the existence of some of them. Artistic and educational, classical and modern, experimental and interactive. What these museums are and what their significance is for Russian and world culture will be discussed during our next meeting.
