The ancient zone of Moscow
The former estate near Moscow, where the popular youth museum is now located, belonged to the state lady Princess Yekaterina Alekseevna Volkonskaya. She spent time mainly in the metropolitan world on the banks of the Neva, chasing honors and offerings. Many decorative ornaments of the building survived. In its restored form, it looks as shown in the photograph - noble.
Even during his lifetime, E.A. Volkonskaya sold the estate to the merchant Monin. Then she went to Nikifor Prokofiev, who opened a honey brewery in it. Then she repeatedly passed from hand to hand, until, finally, the plant became owned by the joint-stock company Moscow Bavaria. So developed the current museum "Winery". Moscow and Muscovites
and they couldn’t imagine that a hundred years later art exhibitions would take place on this territory.
Railway
The Tarusins brothers produced premium beer. Part of their land was cut off by the Kursk railway built. There was still enough space between the warehouses and the main production.
This can be seen in modern photographs that depict the winery. Moscow in those years was not a megalopolis, where every square meter meter was very expensive. Nowadays, seven abandoned buildings have interested entrepreneur
Roman Trotsenko, and he, having made fundamental changes in them, turned them into the center of modern art - the Winery. Moscow in this area has changed. Here cultural life began to boil.
