Villa Imperial. Russian style in Druskininkai.
These are among the first private holiday homes in Druskininkai. As far as is known, the Imperial villa belonged to a local entrepreneur of Jewish origin Frenkel, who opened a restaurant and guest rooms in it. The composition of the buildings is characteristic of the so-called "Italian" villa of the mid-19th century: a massive turret, a triangular pediment and low galleries on the sides. The decor is dominated by the Russian style: openwork carved platbands, Russian columns on both sides of the windows.
