Усадьба С. А. Меншикова, Classical estate in Presnensky District, Russia
The Menshikov Estate features a central mansion with service wings forming a semicircular courtyard, displaying late 18th-century classical architecture in central Moscow.
Built in 1776 for Prince Sergei Aleksandrovich Menshikov, grandson of Peter the Great's associate, the estate underwent modifications in 1790 that defined its classical appearance.
The estate served as residence for notable figures, including USSR People's Artist Vera Pashennaya from 1924 to 1962, and housed the Teacher's Gazette editorial office.
Located at 1/12 Gazetny Lane in Moscow, the estate operates under the Department of Housing Policy and Housing Fund of Moscow.
The estate retains an elliptical courtyard structure, marked by the partial loss of its left wing and subsequent integration with commercial buildings.
