About the project
During its long life, which comes to about 120 years, the house with a lion was a wooden rural house, typical for the Saratov Region and owned by a family of old believers. Everything changed in 2010, when Yulia Terekhova, a student from St. Petersburg, bought it to retain exclusive paintings in its interiors.
In 2013, the house became a private free-access museum, and the project of its scientific restoration was compiled. Theworksstartedin2018, andhavefinishedrecently. TherestoredHousewithaLionisopenforvisitsagain.
