Forest dairy farm of Julius Benois
Forest dairy farm of Julius Benois, Historical dairy farm in Kalinin District, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
The central two-story wooden building with its tower stands among greenery, surrounded by various agricultural structures and modern recreational facilities.
Architect Julius Benois rented this land in 1890 and established a dairy farm by 1904, which received a gold medal at the 1913 All-Russian Hygiene Exhibition.
The complex now functions as a cultural space called Benua 1890, incorporating educational facilities, dining venues, and exhibition areas for community engagement.
The restaurant accommodates 250 guests during winter and 400 in summer, offering international cuisine prepared in traditional cooking methods like cauldron and grill.
