Bath-house
Bath-house in the Abramtsevo estate.
The roots of Abramtsevo go far into the past: for the first time the village of Obramkovo was mentioned in the documents of the 16th century, but as an estate it has been known since the beginning of the 18th century.
It is no coincidence that the bathhouse-teremok (1877–1878) designed by I.P. Ropeta is considered one of the most "bizarre" buildings on the estate: a low wooden building with a mezzanine has very unusual proportions - small windows and a door, a massive porch and a high wide roof decorated with sawn carvings. The Aksakovs used the tower as a bathhouse, while the Mamontovs eventually converted it into a guest house. Now there is an exposition of the Abramtsevo carpentry workshop. But the bathhouse is worth visiting not only for the exhibition of products by E. D. Polenova, but also for the sake of the interior of the bathhouse - this is an excellent example of the "Russian style".
