Chambers of merchant Menshikov: a merchant’s dwelling house and a gallery of the naive art

Almost four centuries ago the wealthy merchant Semyon Menshikov built three-story white stone mansion in Pskov with a wooden superstructure in two floors. These were the first Chambers of the Menshikovs. The merchant's son made a thorough annex to the house, connecting the two buildings with an underground passage. So, the second chamber of the Menshikovs appeared in the city. The third chamber was also connected with the first one by the underground passage, and the fourth one was built at the end of the 17th century opposite the first and was named the second house of Sutocky.
The Chambers of Menshikov suffered greatly during the Great Patriotic War. After the war, one of the buildings was turned into a dwelling house. A gallery of naive art was opened in the second chamber six years ago. And now there are souvenir shops in the first chamber, where one can buy ceramic items made of the unusual black Pskov clay, souvenir birch bark letters, samples of forging work and bijouterie made according to the samples of ancient female jewelry found in the Pskov region during archaeological excavations.
