Faberge museum in Saint Petersburg. More than the eggs! It is totally worth visiting! Neclassical Shuvalov Palace on the Fontanka River - one of the most beautiful palaces in St. Petersburg.The museum's collection contains the world's largest collection of works by Carl Fabergé, including nine of the famous Imperial Easter Eggs, regarded not only as the finest jeweled works of art, but also as unique historical artifacts. It also includes decorative and applied works made by the Russian masters of the late 19th  and early 20th centuries.The exact date of the palace's construction is unknown. It is presumed to have been built at the end of 18th century by the great neoclassical architect Giacomo Quarenghi. Prior to 1799, the palace was owned by the Vorontsov family before it was acquired by Countess Maria Naryshkina.

We loved our visit to this museum. The guide was informative and the eggs breathtakingly beautiful, as well as all the other pieces to see. They have a wonderful gift shop also.

Hesitantly visited Faberge Museum - but i would have not visited this Museum it would have been real painful. It has unbelievable collection of Eater Eggs, Jewelry Pieces, Vessels and lots of amazing pieces of arts unless you see personally - this can be only admired and can never be described. Very close to public transport and beautiful place to visit without exception will not take more tan 90 minutes inside.
