ACM Group
ACM Group

The company was founded in 2003 in St. Petersburg. Originally it was a "Personal Creative Architectural Workshop", created by architects-restorers who worked in the State Hermitage. Now "ACM Group" is a company of professional restorers, operating in many cities and regions of Russia - St. Petersburg and Leningrad region, Moscow, Astrakhan, Kaliningrad, Norilsk, in the Republics of Crimea and Karelia, the Chechen Republic, the Republic of Ingushetia and the Republic of Sakha, as well as carrying out international restoration projects in Europe and the Republic of Uzbekistan. According to the company's projects, more than 160 monument buildings have been restored.

The Museum of City Sculpture believes that the lions were damaged by those who tried to climb on their backs. The sculptures are made of copper sheets only 3 millimeters thick, have no frame and are not designed for such a load.

The Palace Wharf was built in the 1820s according to the project of architect Carlo Rossi. In 1832 the figures of lions were installed - exact copies of the “Medici lions” from the Piazza Signoria in Florence. The sculptures were cast at the Alexander Iron Foundry.

It is strange, of course, to carry out restoration every two years...
