On February 28, 2025, with the support of the AEB NWRC Culture and Sports Subcommittee, a meeting of AEB member companies in the Northwest was organized with a visit to the palace of Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich.

The personalized tour accompanied by an excellent guide allowed the participants to learn more interesting facts about the family of Prince Vladimir, the third son of Emperor Alexander II, to see with their own eyes the preserved luxurious interiors of the palace, to get acquainted with the art and decorations loved and collected by Princess Maria Pavlovna, the wife of Vladimir Alexandrovich, and to learn about the history of the building itself, which has survived many difficult times.

St. Petersburg is rich in heritage and talented people, whom we will continue to get to know as part of the work of the AEB NWRC Culture and Sports Subcommittee.
