French charm of Odessa

On November 01 (Sunday) 2020, at 15.00, a walk around Odessa will take place together with an amazing guide Ekaterina Ergeeva. Odessa was originally a multinational city, and it is difficult to argue with the fact that the French played a key role in its formation. Still would! After all, the first mayors of the city - Richelieu and Langeron - were French by origin. It was the French aristocrats who brought refined examples of Western European life here, and the architects made our city look like the Mediterranean corners of France. In 1817, the first higher educational institution appeared in the city - the Richelieu Lyceum, headed by the Frenchman Charles-Dominique Nicole. France reminded of itself with numerous shops and factory industry (soap, stearin candles, wax and, of course, wine). In short, visit our excursion to find out why Odessa was called "Marseille of the East". A walking walk in the city center is designed for 1.5-2 hours. During the tour we will have a champagne tasting. Where are the French, there is champagne ...
