Olisov Palace, 17th-century architectural landmark in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia.

The Olisov Palace is a 17th-century building in Nizhny Novgorod constructed from limestone and wood. The stone walls carry finely worked decorations that are characteristic of Russian building traditions from that period.

The building was constructed in 1676 during a time of economic growth in Nizhny Novgorod. This period brought architectural innovations to Russian design practices.

The palace displays the Uzorochye style, a Russian design approach that covers facades with elaborate geometric and floral patterns. These decorations show how craftsmen of the time expressed their skill through the building's outer walls.

The building stands on Krutoy Lane and is open for visitors who wish to explore the historical rooms. It is helpful to check local conditions beforehand.

The combination of limestone and wood was unusual for construction methods of that time and shows how craftsmen could skillfully blend different materials. Such hybrid structures are rarely preserved today.
