Art Treasures from the Museums of the Moscow Kremlin

Right in the heart of Moscow, on the hallowed ground of its ancient citadel, stands the unique museum complex of Moscow's Kremlin. It includes depositories of priceless works of applied and pictorial arts that have come down to us through the centuries as an inseparable part of Russian people's spiritual wealth and cultural heritage. The Kremlin's six museums are the world-famous Armoury - the country's oldest museum and the core of the whole complex; its branch - the Museum of Seventeenth Century Applied Art, accommodated in the Patriarch's Palace and the Church of the Twelve Apostles, a fine seventeenth century architectural monument; the Museum Cathedrals of the Annunciation, of the Assumption, and of the Archangel Michael, and the Church of the Laying of the Virgin's Robe. As their very names imply, these museums considerably differ in character.
