Fun Facts
In 1849, an honorary citizen of Petersburg Ms. Yakunchikova acquired the building to turn it into a profitable house with apartments. The project of the French architect M. Adrian Robin was approved by Emperor Nicholas the First. However, during construction the owner violated the approved construction plan: the new apartment house rose higher than the adjacent Mariinsky Palace, which was built for the Emperor’s daughter, Grand Duchess Maria, as a wedding gift. His Imperial Majesty was furious. He punished the violators: arrested M. Robin and sent him abroad and Ms. Yakunchikova was obliged to bring the facade of the building in line with the highly approved project.
