Abamelek-Lazarev House (Millionnaya Street, 22)
Saint Petersburg, Millionnaya Street, 22
The Abamelek-Lazarev House at 22 Millionnaya Street was built in stone in 1735–1737 for Count F. A. Apraksin on the site of the wooden house of Vice Admiral M. P. Gosler. Under Prince Vasilchikov, the building received a four-column portico of marble Ionic order columns, and the walls were smoothly plastered; it is presumed that A. Rinaldi participated in the reconstruction of the 1770s. The house contained a domestic church of the Presentation of the Lord, and in 1919 the Institute of Public Dentistry was opened here. By 1922, the institute's museum had 970 exhibits, and the staff included three qualified employees.
