Opening of the unique architectural monument – Vladychnaya or Facets Palace – after its restoration is timed to the 1150th anniversary of Russia.
According to some researchers, it was here, within the walls erected by German architects, where the unification of Russia took place.
“There will be only monarchic power in Novgorod just like in the Moscow state”, - the Sovereign of all Russia Ivan the Third announced his decision in 1478.
Faceted Chamber is the only German Gothic construction of civil function that has come down to us in Russia.
