Then you can go to the corridor and the kitchen.

According to the plan of the designer, servants were supposed to live here, since this apartment was built for Countess Sheremeteva. When the time was replaced by the Soviet period, it became the usual habitat for the inhabitants. Since the 30s of the 20th century these premises were used on a communal basis. It was here that Anna Akhmatova once performed her household affairs. The house museum has preserved its former surroundings.
