Description

This street, lined by the former Merchants' Court and numerous churches and palaces, is steeped in charm. Known since the 12C, Ulitsa Varvarka attracted silk merchants in the 14C and prompted the inhabitants of Pskov to build a church here. Later the street acquired its aristocratic allure from the ambassadors' residences (of which only the English residence remains) and palaces built by boyars.
