A little delved into the fate of the Faberge family. You won't envy them. :( I hope someday a dramatic film will be made about them. I would hire Spielberg to do this. Although it will cost more than the collection itself, I guess. :) Maybe Vekselberg will get his hands on it. Well done - a man. The highest score for this museum for everything without exception. I can't find anything that can be improved and improved. The building is excellently selected and prepared, the management of the process is excellent, the staff is impeccable. Even the level of sensitivity of the security service is surprisingly high. I liked the light of the exhibits very much. I have never seen such a professional light in any of Peter's museums. I am even more satisfied with the quality of the glass boxes of the exhibits, they are enlightened and do not glare - the exhibits seem to be without glass. Quite an interesting collection of paintings and household luxury in the halls. Touched the owner's corner, where he apparently conducts business negotiations. I would like to thank Mr. Vekselberg. Low bow to you. God knows what all this is costing you. I think at the Court you will have something to be proud of. Thanks you!
I really liked the museum, a lot of beautiful things of amazing work, a real aesthetic pleasure. I recommend to visit. PS. It is better to buy tickets in advance online on the museum website, so as not to stand in line on the street.
A small museum, but very "saturated", the presented exhibits are described in detail (we took an audio guide), the windows are conveniently located, a pleasant sensation of presence in the history of the famous jewelry house is created :)
The Faberge eggs are spectacular. It's possible to visit the museum in the evenings up until 9pm and tour on your own using an audio guide which is very informative and comes in most languages. In addition to the eggs there are also a number of ornate items produced by the house of Faberge such as silverware, jewellery boxes and cigarette cases.
Get an audio guide or best an English guide. Very interesting stories and the eggs are such masterpieces. Be sure to check their YouTube channels to see the eggs in action
This place deserves 10 stars, then there are situations to fix, for example: if you want the audio guide, you have to leave 1000 rubles in storage. Being the last day, I no longer had this amount in cash. The young cashier in Italian tells me that "it's my business". No audio guide. Why not do as we do leaving a document to guarantee the return? The museum is worth the trip!
Interesting! In addition to products manufactured by Faberge, other jewelry factories are exhibited.
Nice museum, a bit small but great tour, the eggs are majestic
Really cool museum, with Faberge eggs and other whimsical creations. If you're interested in them, it's unmissable because the collection is rich, the palace is beautiful and the information is well presented. The audioguide is really worth it - it's necessary to leave a 1000 rubles deposit, so be prepared.
No regret, must visit. Small and easy to tour around the whole museum. Lots of good pieces besides Eggs! With the museum ticket get discount for the hop on hop off cruise tour right outside!
Beautiful! Amazing handmade objects. You will spend great time to admire the most beautiful russian jewelry.
Has a great selection of faberge and antiques. Consist of 11 rooms (if i am not mistaken) , time spent to look at all the things is about 1 hour unless you want to know the detail and history of the items displayed.
Pictures are interestingly illuminated with light, creating an interesting effect.
Fabulous! The house, exponates but also the exposing - a must see!
It's a interesting collection but doesn't have a huge amount of Faberge items like you would have expected.

Gorgeous place! very good spiritual guide, a young blond woman. Tickets in advance is better to take a guide, maybe, one day were taken and there was only one ticket for our time
Lots of Faberge eggs on display! Not a long wait to get in on the the Tuesday afternoon that we went. Still busy inside especially around the eggs.
Beautiful museum with beautiful pieces that must have inspired the current creators and designers. This is a must see for tourists visiting Russia.
Don t miss the opportunity to visit this museum to admire the Faberg s collection.
What a fantastic museum magnificent items on display
And I thought that there are no more eggs of mine ... By the way, a good tip for all visitors - download the soundcloud app and there you will find an audio guide for free! Free audio guide in soundcloud app
A feast for our eyes. A truly beautiful and diverse collection. Above all, don't hesitate to come and see. The eggs are really beautiful, but the rest of the collection is truly sublime and very diverse.
Amazing collection. Cheers to the billionaire who gathered these amazing pieces.
This is the first and only museum from which I knew I had to leave, and that's how I wanted to stay there. Everything is beautiful in this museum. After four hours of watching, taking pictures and videos, I came to the conclusion that I have to come here again because I did not see everything as I would like it. Museum beautiful, nice service, I was not forbidden to record gimbal movies. When I made the fifth circle around the chambers, I became almost an interior design element for the museum staff. It is the largest and richest private museum in Russia. I would highly recommend!!!
Impressed with most famous part of this collection - Faberge"s eggs
Expensive, rich :) but beautiful and informative ...
Good and excellent exhibits, presented in a standard way. You can take pictures.
You'll find cute gems and egg crafts ordered by the royal family. The parents were happy too. Admission is not cheap as it is a privately owned museum.
As always, everything is very cool and professional. A magnificent collection, in good condition, and without queues, if everything is ordered in advance
One of my fav spots to see in this city. Gift shop was impossible to leave empty handed. IMPOSSIBLE.
It is a particular museum but the 7th of the best museums seen so far, starting from location, organization and security, to exhibits and exposure modes. The exhibits include not only Faberge pieces, but also many other pieces by other Russian jewelers, with the observation that all of the exhibits belong to the same era. Try to inform yourself in advance of the exposed pieces. Their story, their history, and the events they are exposed to are unprecedented and worth knowing before the objects are seen. Otherwise, with a guide, in 2 hours you can see the museum and do not stay with too much. I recommend you to see the museum and if you have the opportunity, check it out.
What beautiful eggs. What a shame the collection is split up around the world.
One of my two favourite museums in St Petersburg (the other being the Zoological museum). The Eggs are just mind blowing.
A special museum, beautiful treasures, I was happy to see a painting of the French town of Saint-Cyrk to Poppy
Beautiful collection, I recommend booking online ticket to avoid queues
. . - 450 5 . , 150 1000 . . . , .
Remarkable! The story of the Faberge family is extraordinary. They were Huguenots who had fled the France of Louis XIV in 1785. What know-how!
Beyond praise. Everything is super. Extraordinary beauty.
Excellent, great, delicious. Saint Petersburg. Near Anichkov Bridge
Brilliant. Must see.Full of wonderful objects. Dont buy in the shop.
Alas no photos, prohibited, but extraordinary museum, not to be missed
Great museum, Frieda went to the exhibition twice. The main exhibition without a guide is interesting, but it is better to read about everything in advance and prepare.
Interesting and beautiful. You need to go and see this magnificence with your own eyes!
Beautiful building. The collections are mesmerizing. It is not huge, but it has excellent examples of the fine quality and artistic value of the Russian craft and jewelry
Loved the tour in English. And seeing the masterpieces is priceless.
The surfeit of fakes available all over the tourist shops in Russia, do take way from the grandeur of seeing the original Faberge eggs. But the craftsmanship is evident and though the tickets are a little pricier than I would have liked, I would still recommend the place. Interestingly, the gift shop is reasonably priced and should definitely be on your shopping list.
It was not very cool. For those who know the Kremlin armori museum, it is a bit boring to visit the Faberge since, apparently, the most exquisite pieces are in the Moscow Museum.
Small but must visit if you are interested in Faberge Eggs
Autumn is an interesting exhibition of applied art at the end of the century before last. Recommend!
Five star looks, but shortcomings, unworthy of this category of hotels. Expensive for the lack of rigor in the service provided to the client.
Stunning miniature works of art and a couple hidden impressionist works as well. Beautiful all around.
A wonderful museum of creations by Carl Faberge, located in a beautiful historical building - the Naryshkin-Shuvalovs palace. The museum, in addition to the collection of the famous Faberge Easter eggs, features silverware, silver icons, jewelry, as well as silver works of famous Faberge rival jewelers. In addition to the luxurious interiors of the palace and jewelry directly, you can admire the paintings of Aivazovsky, Renoir, Bryullov. This museum will not leave anyone indifferent, I recommend to visit!
If you are in St. Petersburg for the first time, then you should not waste time on this museum. A small museum exhibition and a decent admission fee. Just a few dozen Faberge eggs
A very interesting museum, with very peculiar things of history. They will know the history and value they have. Located in the center of the city of St. Petersburg and in the end you can leave the thanks in a few lines.
The staff were reallyniceand attentive. We needed a wheelchair for my grandmother and they were very helpful. The museum itself is nice, but nothing more.
There are no words! Perfectly. I advise you to visit
High quality, exclusive jewellery from the famous Faberge producer for the Russian emperor family. Very interesting, yet very demanding. No backpacks allowed.
Beautiful and perfect place to visit with your couple or family. Great masterpieces to watch.
Very beautiful things. Chic rooms. But I expected more
So many things in this Museum beyond the Faberge eggs
Small perl ! Worth to visit and take excursion tour, i got a lot of interesting information!
Very nice, it makes sense to even stand in line for 30-40 minutes, but it is better to buy tickets over the Internet.
Pleasently sourprised with this museum. I wasn't expecting some egg-shaped jewelry to be so attractive and mean so much beyond the actual jewelry beauty. A nice way to see and understand some facts about Russia pre and post revolution.
I love these museums, where there is something to see, this, and not a replica. Go will not regret. Just take a guide or audio guide for an extra fee.
A small jewel of a museum, even if the jewels contained there are many. The famous (Easter) eggs produced for the famous jeweler who worked for the Czars are exhibited. But not only. Fantastic ceramics, precious artifacts in gold and silver and even some paintings by Russian painters of exquisite workmanship. Definitely worth spending 1h30 'for the visit.
Must see this. Collection is best in the world. And building it is housed in is furnished to the period
The museum is located in the Shuvalavsky Palace (near Nevsky, Anichkov Bridge district) and here is collected a huge collection of works by Faberge. Several large halls of the palace with preserved interiors are also worthy of attention - here are luxurious statues, fireplaces and mirrors with candelabra. But, of course, the main pearl of all this is the private collection of the museum. In addition to the Faberge eggs familiar to all of us, there is a huge collection of caskets, dishes, icons and much more. I was in the museum twice and it does not get boring. The cost of tickets is 450 rubles, there are benefits for pensioners and students
It's nice that the excursions every hour. A really good guide and the exposure is very rich. Well done with souvenirs and cafes
Very compact and easily accessible museum! The museum is full of beautiful artwork. One thing I didn t like was the fact that they have no descriptions for any of the eggs and related stuff. Come before 1 to avoid long queues.
