The Yusupov Palace was one of the most elegant residences in Europe in the 19th century. Yusupovs were among the richest people in Russia before the socialist revolution of 1917, that is why this palace ranks with the finest palaces of the royal family. The Yusupov family line goes back at least as far as the Romanovs. The palace lets you feel the atmosphere of luxury and comfort, showing fine taste and character of the owners. It is the only palace in St. Petersburg with a functioning home theater. One of its owners was so fond of theater that he decided to build one of his own right in this palace. Besides, his wife was a great actress and she often performed there. Now they also use this theater for small ballet performances for the public.
