Moscow is famous for its churches and Soviet buildings. But not much is known about Moscow Art Nouveau. Style Modern (the Russian term for Art Nouveau) was very popular in Russia at the turn of the 20th century.
The Memorial Museum of Maxim Gorky is a must see for anyone visiting Moscow, and not only because this is where the great writer once lived and worked. Gorky’s house on Malaya Nikitskaya Street is a unique art nouveau landmark in Moscow.
This fantastic building is worth visiting in its own right to see the amazing mix of Soviet styling with Art Nouveau. Throw in a museum of period life and we're sold!
