      • The museum opened on 13 (26) November 1904 — Russia's first museum built specially in honour of one person.
      • The money was raised by public subscription: 298,000 rubles had been collected by the opening, and peasants of one village donated bread.
      • The building in the spirit of ancient Russian fortresses was designed by the architect Alexander von Hohen.
      • The mosaics on the facade are “Suvorov Crossing the Alps” and “Suvorov Leaving the Village of Konchanskoye”, each about 4 by 9 metres.
      • They were the first large mosaic panels on a building facade in Petersburg.
      • The foundation stone was laid on 8 June 1901 in the presence of Suvorov's descendants.
