      • From 1902 the embankment was called the French one, because the French embassy was here; in 1918 it was renamed Jaurès Embankment.
      • It got Kutuzov's name in September 1945, after the field marshal's house at No. 30.
      • Mstislav Rostropovich and Galina Vishnevskaya lived at No. 16 from 1994 to 2007.
      • No. 10 housed the French embassy in 1892–1917, and in the 1950s Academician Ioffe's Institute of Semiconductors.
