At the building area of “Izvestia” newspaper building had been situated the house of Rimskaya-Korsokova. The house was named “Famusov’s house”. A.S. Griboedov was there many times. By the legend, when he was at the Korsakova’s dancing party and criticized Russian predilection for French style, many people decided that he had become mad and visited him to ask about his health. Griboedov decided to prove that he is not mad and wrote “The grief from the mind”.
