Владичний двір, Historic episcopal residence in Novgorod Kremlin, Russia.
The Bishop's Court complex contains multiple chambers and halls within the stone walls of the Novgorod Kremlin, displaying medieval architectural elements.
The construction began in the late 11th century as the residence and administrative center for Orthodox bishops who governed religious affairs in medieval Novgorod.
The building houses collections of religious artifacts, including medieval manuscripts and ecclesiastical objects from the Orthodox Christian tradition of northern Russia.
The Bishop's Court opens daily from 10:00 to 18:00, with guided tours available in Russian and English through the Novgorod Museum Reserve.
The complex features the Chamber of Facets, constructed in 1433, which represents the oldest surviving Russian palace building with original Gothic vaulting.
