Wawelberg Bank building
Wawelberg Bank building, Banking landmark at Nevsky Prospekt, Russia
The Wawelberg building features dark gray granite facades with rusticated columns, two-tier arcades, pilasters, window frames, and sculptural elements at the corner of Nevsky Prospekt.
The Saint Petersburg Trading Bank, founded in 1846 by merchant Heinrich Wawelberg in Warsaw, commissioned architect Marian Peretyatkovich to design this building in 1901.
The architectural design draws inspiration from Venetian Renaissance palaces, incorporating elements that reference both the Doge's Palace and Palazzo Medici Riccardi.
The building stands at 7-9 Nevsky Prospekt, near Admiralteyskaya metro station, with its main entrance located at the intersection with Malaya Morskaya Street.
The granite shield at the pediment above the service entrance displays the initials of banker M.I. Wawelberg, leading to the local nickname Money Palace.
