The Hermitage is not only a large museum. The Hermitage lecture hall operates specifically to open people to the world of beauty. It has two addresses: the first lecture hall is located in one of the new storage buildings, the second is in the former General Staff building on Palace Square. It is unlikely that you will be able to visit both halls in one day, so you should prepare for your encounter with art in advance.

Lecture hall of the Hermitage General Staff

The lecture hall has existed for many years now. It is called the hall where artists' paintings come to life. Here you can listen to several series of lectures. The themes are varied, covering the entire history of mankind in the works of artists from primitive days to the present.

Caring employees work here who are happy to tell stories about the past. Under their unhurried monologue, all the slides shown on the screen no longer seem like just beautiful paintings, but windows into bygone centuries.

The small room with red soft chairs is very cozy; each chair is equipped with a folding table for taking notes. The large slide show screen is clearly visible from all seats. Slides allow you to examine works of art in detail from an advantageous angle. As the lecture progresses, the guide draws attention to various details.

Traditionally, after each session there is applause for the narrator.

Lecture programs at the General Staff

The staff's presentations are composed in such a way that it becomes interesting both to specialists and to first-time visitors to the museum. Academic knowledge is presented in an engaging and accessible manner.

Now this Hermitage lecture hall hosts several programs:

1. University of the History of Foreign Art - 3rd course.
2. Eastern classes: ancient Egypt, India, China.
3. Ancient world: Greece, Italy, Scythians.
4. East: the Islamic world, Khorezm, about a forgotten empire.
5. Western Europe: Venice, German book, Curiosities of nature, Literary heroes, Painting of the 17th century, French weavers, Master jewelers, Service with a green frog, English watercolor, Paris of the early twentieth century, German expressionists, Sculpture of the 20th-21st centuries, Three artists 21 century.
6. Russia: about museum exhibits.

You can visit it on weekdays; the ticket office is open from 10.30 to 19.20. On weekends, work is reduced by two hours; at 17.30 the doors are closed to visitors. Monday is a non-working day.

Lecture hall of the Hermitage in the Old Village

The historical district of the city where the storage facility is located is called the “Old Village”. This is also the name of the nearest metro. The complex was built relatively recently - the first stage was commissioned in 2003. A new lecture hall opened its doors there.

If the Hermitage lecture hall on Palace Square looks like a chamber theater, then this new one looks like a large university auditorium. The light green chairs rise in steps and have the same folding tables as in the old lecture hall.

Evening concerts are held here. The spacious, cozy hall gathers guests on Sundays at 17.30. Under the fading colors of the day, watching the sleeping garden outside the window, visitors hear the sounds of music from a historical era, which is narrated by an art historian.

Lecture programs in the Old Village

Here you can listen to the following topics:

1. Since ancient times.
2. Masters of the 19th century.
3. About Ancient Greece.
4. F. Goya.
5. London. Museums.
6. Tapestry weaving in Europe.
7. Art of the 20th-21st centuries.

The following topics have been prepared especially for schoolchildren:

1. European court costume of the 15th-17th centuries.
2. Stories from the life of Hermitage masterpieces.
3. Traveling through the countries of the East.
4. Myths and legends in the fine arts.
5. Weekdays and holidays of the ancient world.
6. Art is all around us.
7. Secrets of palaces (2 parts).

The lecture hall welcomes visitors from 10.30 to 19.00. On weekends, the working day is 1 hour shorter. Monday, Tuesday are non-working days.

Visitor reviews

Those who begin to attend the lecture series can no longer refuse. Sorry to miss another topic. Therefore, advice from experienced visitors: buy a subscription. True, you will have to wait in a long line for him - there are many people willing. Some stood for 6 hours. But it's worth it.

The history of foreign art is studied over three academic years, classes are divided into 87 lectures. It is convenient to visit them - they start at 19.00, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in the General Headquarters.

Many reviews quote excerpts from lectures. It's clear that people really enjoyed it. It was unexpected to see an elderly museum worker dashingly operating a computer. The lecturers’ excellent Russian language, passion for what they loved and an excellent sense of humor did their job - the audience sat for 2 hours, fascinated by the story.

Very different people visit the Hermitage lecture hall. The reviews from this motley crowd of young and old are unanimous: they had a good time, learned a lot of interesting things and were eager to visit the museum exhibition in order to see with their own eyes what was demonstrated using slides.

Addresses of lecture halls, how to get there

Both lecture halls are easy to find even for a person unfamiliar with the city. If you plan to visit the museum, then at the same time you can visit the nearby lecture hall of the General Staff.

You can get to Nevsky Prospekt by metro. Stations "Nevsky Prospekt" and "Gostiny Dvor", exit to the Griboyedov Canal. Next, we orient ourselves along the spire of the Admiralty, to the right of which is the Winter Palace.

From the Admiralteyskaya station we first exit onto Nevsky, then approach the Admiralty. The Hermitage lecture hall, whose address is Palace Square, building 6/8, has an entrance from the square.

The lecture hall in Staraya Derevnya is located at the address: Zausadbnaya St., 37 A. It is better to get there by metro to the Staraya Derevnya station.

Rules for visiting the museum

A museum is a cultural object. People don’t come here in T-shirts and shorts, frivolous and similar clothes. There is no dress code, but visitors are expected to show basic respect for the heritage of many centuries.

High thin heels can damage precious parquet floors; it is also better to leave them at home. Large items and bags will be accepted by the wardrobe. Food and drinks are prohibited on museum premises.

Here you can take photographs of the exhibits for free. It is prohibited to do this only in museum storerooms. In a lifetime, a person will not be able to view all three million exhibits of the Hermitage, so take the opportunity to learn about the most interesting ones by visiting the lecture hall.
