Bath House

About museum

In the second half of the 19th century a stone Bath House was built for the wife of Emperor Alexander II, Maria Alexandrovna, who suffered from lung ailments. There she could receive hydrotherapy treatments fashionable in Europe at the time. The building includes a Steam Room with a stone stove (pechka-kamenka) and a pyramid of cast-iron balls, a room for taking warm baths and baths of herbal decoctions, and a Cold Bath with a shower disguised as an ornate bronze-and-glass chandelier decorated with clusters of grapes and morning-glory flowers.
