“Historical toilet” in GUM

The luxurious toilet room was created under Alexander III in shopping malls built in a European manner. Later, the room was closed, and then appeared before visitors in a more modest way. In the 2000s, the historical appearance of the toilet was restored from drawings and photographs. Now these old photos can be seen on the walls of the Historical Toilet and see its similarity to the original.

As mentioned above, visitors to the toilet museum can not only admire the environment, but also use it for its intended purpose. Here you can also take a shower, swaddle your baby, brush your teeth and even shave. At the entrance, visitors will be greeted by ladies in white aprons who will help you take off their outerwear.

The restroom itself, as usual, is divided into men's and women's rooms. The plumbing and toilet paper holders installed in the ladies' half are gilded, while in the men's room these items are silver plated. Lamps made of bronze and crystal deserve special attention. Instead of paper napkins, there are cotton towels in the Historic Toilet.
