Nevsky Prospect 86, Federal cultural heritage building on Nevsky Prospect, Saint Petersburg, Russia.

Nevsky Prospect 86 is a five-story neoclassical palace with nineteen bays across its facade. The structure features Doric columns and decorative armorial relief panels positioned at the fourth floor level.

The palace was originally built for Prince Troubetzkoy in the 18th century and underwent several reconstructions over time. A significant renovation was completed by architect Mikhail Ovsyannikov, who designed the prominent five-column centerpiece.

The building housed members of the Russian nobility and reflects the architectural preferences of Saint Petersburg's wealthy upper class during the 18th century. Its neoclassical design with ornate details shows the taste that aristocrats favored for their urban residences.

The building sits on Saint Petersburg's main thoroughfare, making it easy to reach by various transportation options. Its central location makes it a natural stop when exploring the Prospect.

The facade features distinctively segmented portals at each end that draw inspiration from Venetian architecture. These window designs show an artistic blend of European styles characteristic of Saint Petersburg's building design during that era.
