THE STATE HERMITAGE MUSEUM IN SAINT PETERSBURG RUSSIA
The State Hermitage Museum (Winter Palace)
The Winter Palace was built between 1754 and 1762 for Empress Elizabeth, the daughter of Peter the Great. Unfortunately, Elizabeth died before the palace's completion and only Catherine the Great and her successors were able to enjoy the sumptuous interiors of Elizabeth's home. Many of the palace's impressive interiors have been remodeled since then, particularly after 1837, when a huge fire destroyed most of the building. Today the Winter Palace, together with four more buildings arranged side by side along the river embankment, houses the extensive collections of the Hermitage. The Hermitage Museum is the largest art gallery in Russia and is among the largest and most respected art museums in the world.
Interior of the State Hermitage Museum
The museum was founded in 1764 when Catherine the Great purchased a collection of 255 paintings from the German city of Berlin. Today, the Hermitage boasts over 2.7 million exhibits and displays a diverse range of art and artifacts from all over the world and from throughout history (from Ancient Egypt to the early 20th century Europe). The Hermitage's collections include works by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael and Titian, a unique collection of Rembrandts and Rubens, many French Impressionist works by Renoir, Cezanne, Manet, Monet and Pissarro, numerous canvasses by Van Gogh, Matisse, Gaugin and several sculptures by Rodin. The collection is both enormous and diverse and is an essential stop for all those interested in art and history. The experts say that if you were to spend a minute looking at each exhibit on display in the Hermitage, you would need 11 years before you'd seen them all. However, it is recommend to opt for a guided tour instead!

Saint Petersburg, Heremitage - Russia 4K Travel Channel
The Hermitage is the former winter palace of the Tsar in St. Petersburg. It is one of the largest and most important art museums in the world. The Hermitage is in the city center of Saint Petersburg, which belongs to the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage.
The collection comprises nearly 3 million objects, of which only about 65,000 are on display. Every year, approximately 2.5 million people visit the Hermitage Museum
The spectrum of exhibits ranges from archaeological collections to Russian art and Central and Western European art, with the emphasis on painting.
On our arrival at the Palace Square, a huge queue has already formed. We observed the same in the Catherine Palace. Later we learned that there are several entrances and thus also several queues.
At first, we take a look around at Palace Square. In doing so, we learn that the Alexander Column is free-standing, and thus not fastened in any way. At first the citizens of St. Petersburg were afraid to pass by.
The archway of the General Staff building is impressive. Parts of this building now house parts of the modern Hermitage painting, such as the 31 paintings of the Spanish painter Pablo Picasso. Another part of the Russian collection was transferred to the Russian Museum at the Mikhailovsky Palace.
Thanks to our guide we were able to avoid the queues and enter the Winter Palace at the archaeological collections. Here we reach the Jordan staircase, a baroque representative staircase.
On the first floor, we enjoy the view of the Neva River and the Hare Island. In the background, we recognize the first modern skyscraper, just being build by the oil company Rosneft.
In the Field Marshals' Hall, we admire see artfully designed chandeliers and vases. Then follows the Peter the Great Memorial Hall also known as the small throne room. The throne is in a shell-shaped wall niche.
An exhibition of ancient robes is currently on display in the splendid Armorial Hall. It detracts the attention from the fantastic chandeliers.
The War Gallery of 1812 houses 332 portraits of generals. A further ceremonial room, the St George's Hall or Great Throne Room follows. Here, is also an exhibition of robes. The throne was placed under a large canopy.

Die Eremitage ist der ehemalige Winterpalast der Zaren in St. Petersburg. Sie beherbergt eines der größten und bedeutendsten Kunstmuseen der Welt. Die Eremitage liegt in der Sankt Petersburger Innenstadt, die zum UNESCO Weltkulturerbe gehört.
Zur Sammlung gehören nahezu 3 Millionen Objekte, von denen ungefähr 65000 ausgestellt sind. Ca. 2,5 Millionen Besucher besichtigen jährlich die Ausstellung.
Das Spektrum der Ausstellungsstücke reicht von Archäologischen Sammlungen, über Russische Kunst bis hin zu mittel- und westeuropäischer Kunst, wobei die Malerei im Vordergrund steht.
Bei unserer Ankunft am Palast Platz hat sich bereits eine riesige Warteschlange gebildet. Ähnliches konnten wir auch schon im Katharinenpalast beobachten. Später haben wir erfahren, dass es mehrere Eingänge und damit auch mehrere Warteschlangen gibt.
Zunächst sehen wir uns am Palast Platz etwas um. Dabei lernen wir, dass die Alexander Säule nur aufgestellt, aber in keinster Weise befestigt ist. Anfangs hatten die St. Petersburger Bürger Angst daran vorbei zu gehen.
Beeindruckend ist der Torbogen des Generalstabs. In Teilen dieses Gebäudes befinden sich mittlerweile Teile der modernen Malerei der Eremitage, wie z.B. die 31 Gemäldes des spanischen Malers Pablo Picasso. Ein weiterer Teil der russischen Sammlung wurde in das Russische Museum im Mikhaylovsky Palace (Michailowski-Palast) ausgelagert.
Nachdem wir, dank unserer Reiseleiterin, die Warteschlangen umgehen konnten und den Winter Palast bei den archäologischen Sammlungen betreten haben, erreichen wir die Jordantreppe (Ehrentreppe), eine barocke Repräsentationstreppe.
Im 1. Stock genießen wir erst einmal den Ausblick auf die Newa und die Haseninsel. Im Hintergrund erkennen wir das erste moderne Hochhaus, das der Gaskonzern Rosneft gerade erbaut.
Im Feldmarschallsaal gibt es kunstvoll gestaltete Kronleuchter und Vasen zu besichtigen. Danach folgt der Petersaal oder der kleine Thronsaal. In einer muschelförmigen Wandnische wurde der Thron aufgestellt.

ST. PETERSBURG TRAVEL GUIDE - Best View in the City!
On our first full day in St Petersburg, Russia, we spent the morning exploring the city with Free Tour St Petersburg -- a free city sights walking tour. It was great and we have many fun facts and details to share all week in our St Petersburg Travel Guide!
After the free tour, Katie and I went to find the best viewpoint of St Petersburg, which happens to be at St Isaac's Cathedral! This is the ONLY place in the city that you can get up high and view everything from above.
The majority of St Petersburg is built on marsh/swamp land, so they cannot build high tall buildings, which means most areas are quite low profile. The cathedral is one of the taller buildings in the city and hosts an amazing vantage point!
Stay tuned for our Russia Travel Guide on all of the best sights to see across St Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan and the Golden Ring!
