Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Architectural heritage
Arkhangelsk Gostiny Dvor
Gostiny Dvor forms a large built ensemble on the Northern Dvina. Its facades and volumes connect the city’s trading heritage with the river landscape. Views from the banks help explain its place in the urban waterfront.
Museum
Northern Maritime Museum
The Northern Maritime Museum explores northern navigation through objects and collections. Its displays distinguish the world of sail from that of metal-hulled ships. The visit offers a cultural introduction to Arkhangelsk’s port and maritime history.
Walk and landscape
Northern Dvina Embankment
The embankment reveals the Northern Dvina waterfront at walking scale. Open spaces and river views connect several city landmarks. Water and riverside buildings provide the main setting for this stop.
Museum
Museum of wooden architecture of Malyé Korely
Malye Korely brings wooden buildings together in an open-air landscape. Facades, roofs and the arrangement of the structures reveal several forms of this architecture. This stop outside Arkhangelsk is separate from the urban embankment route.
