Today we will take a closer look at the interior of building A, the hospital (the left part of the building on this picture, see A on the plan below).

The entrance to building A in the couryard (D), with the ruins of the church C on the background

The guestroom, where old pictures of the Tsar can be seen on the wall (with our driver waiting)

Here another photo of Herman, with the ruined church in detail: as you can see, the building A/B, the hospital, was not yet build. The church dates from 8 Juli 1882, according to this webiste.
