      • It is one of the oldest streets in the city: a decree of 16 November 1715 called it Bolshaya, and the first maps called it Pochtovaya.
      • The name comes from Count Pyotr Sheremetev's lavish "Millionny House" (no. 19); until 1874 it was spelled with a single "l".
      • Under Catherine II, races of trotters harnessed to carriages with court ladies and gentlemen were held on the street.
      • From 1918 to 1991 the street bore the name of the People's Will member Stepan Khalturin, who set off the explosion in the Winter Palace.
