Moscow Gostiny Dvor, Convention center in Tverskoy District, Moscow, Russia.
Moscow Gostiny Dvor is an exhibition and event venue in the city center featuring neoclassical design with Corinthian columns and arcades that shape its character. A modern glass roof covers much of the space, creating a bright and open environment for various events and gatherings.
The building began as a merchant court in the 1590s and was later redesigned by Italian architect Giacomo Quarenghi under Catherine the Great. This transformation in 1789 blended its earlier structures with neoclassical elements.
The venue hosts exhibitions, fashion shows, and concerts that shape Moscow's business and social calendar. These events reflect how this place remains central to the city's cultural and commercial life.
The venue is centrally located and easily accessible, with spacious areas that can be flexibly arranged for different events. Good connectivity and existing facilities make it straightforward to visit and navigate.
Excavations during renovations uncovered items from a 17th-century residence, now displayed in an attached museum. These archaeological discoveries give visitors a direct glimpse into life from that period.
