The riches from Eastern Europe's history are major draws for art history buffs, students of royal culture, and, archeologists, and Slavophiles.

Riches of Eastern European History - Russian State Diamond Fund

The Russian State Diamond Fund is one place it's possible to get up close and personal with Eastern European treasures like the Crown of Monomakh. The Fund, started by Peter the Great, keeps all of Russia's riches in one location and maintains strict rules about the collection that resides therein. Some items are on exhibit, while others are kept locked away. The Crown of Monomakh, representative of ancient Russia, was worn by Vladimir Monomakh and Boris Godunov. This impressive "cap" recalls struggles for power in in Rus and early Russian rulers. Other royal riches, including record-breakingly large diamonds, crowns, and Faberge Eggs, are also housed in the Russian State Diamond Fund.
