🏛 Elizavetino bathhouse ruins

парк «Покровское-Стрешнево», Елизаветинский овраг

The ruins of a small 18th-century stone building (early 1770s) in a ravine — what is left of an estate, long since overgrown by forest.

The two-story bathhouse was built in the early 1770s by Fyodor Glebov as a gift to his wife Elizaveta Streshneva.
Researchers attribute the pavilion's architecture to Nikolay Lvov.
On 16 July 1775 Catherine II had tea here with Elizaveta Glebova-Streshneva.
There was a menagerie nearby: an 1805 inventory lists 21 deer and 109 rare birds, including Persian geese and swans.
In 1919 the pavilion was given to a textile workers' rest home, and during the war, according to the official version, a bomb destroyed it.
