Our Programs:
North River Station. First meeting
Meeting with the history of the most picturesque river port in Moscow.
Instead of awkward silence – an interesting excursion into the biography of the Moscow Canal, the Khimki lake, and its main attraction, the Port of Five Seas. We just talk about complex architectural forms and do it with a twinkle. That rare case is when you can go on a first meeting with the whole family.

North River Station . Second meeting
Architectural tour of the Northern River Station.
A metaphysical rapprochement with the North River Terminal, during which restored scars and marks of explosive epochs on the body of the building is revealed. Everything that for years rested under layers of paint and parquet, and everything that did not fit there – on excursions with in-depth knowledge of architecture and bohemian gossip of the Soviet creative elite.

Museum route ’T’
The unique trolleybus route in Moscow that has a story to tell.
In 2020, the trolleybus ceded the capital streets to its modern successor, the electric bus. However, on the circular route from Komsomolskaya Square to Novoryazanskaya Street, a kind of trolleybus reserve has appeared – the Museum Route ‘T’. One trip and you are already aware of the latest cultural news of the area and all the twists and turns of the fate of the Russian trolleybus.
