    A magnificent site where artists can exhibit their works in the open air, the artists who exhibit have incredible talent, it is worth the detour and a special thought to Pierre Shasmoukine who made this place a true masterpiece and his sister and its staff are very warm and caring towards customers! You will not be disappointed !

    Do you like unusual cultural places? Gorodka is by its essence. This place is full of the history of its creator but also of all the people who surrounded him in his life. To support this place, go visit it and above all take the guided tour to better understand. A big thank you to Catherine for the explanations and to Assim for the present and future of the place which are in his hands!
