The foundation of the Faceted Chamber was laid in 1487 by Italian architect Marco Friazin as a throne hall for state receptions in the new Great Prince’s Palace of Ivan III. The construction was finished in 1491 by Pietro Antonio Solari, a Lombard architect. In 1838-1849, while the construction of the Grand Kremlin Palace, the Faceted Chamber was included into the new complex of palace buildings and connected with the Vladimir Hall through the Holy Anteroom. At the moment, the Faceted Chamber is an official ceremonial hall in the residence of the President of the Russian Federation. Despite that it is still self-sufficient historic building having name of its own and individual address.
