The site on the "lower embankment of the line" near the Galerny Dvor first belonged to the galley master "foreigner" Yuri Rusinov, who in 1712 built a hut house here. In 1721, the site was already owned by Prince Ivan Fedorovich Baryatinsky (1687 & ndash 1738), a military general, associate of Peter I. He, despite the decree, did not begin to build stone chambers, since he was outside St. Petersburg, so he had a plot 13 fathoms wide withdrawn and in 1735 transferred to a wealthy Tula breeder Nikita Nikitich Demidov Sr., the son of the founder of the famous dynasty. The construction of the chambers began in the spring of 1737 and finished the following year, albeit partially. According to the report of that year: `` On the right side is a hut, on the left there is a shed, a stable, and a bathhouse. '' These buildings were ordered to be demolished, and in 1739 there were on the site: the main building with a mezzanine and a balcony overlooking the Neva, an adjoining courtyard wing and a one-story building along the New Admiralty Canal. With the main building in 9 axes, this building was connected by a stone fence with a gate, through which they drove from the courtyard to the two-flight entrance porch. The house in the "Anninsky Baroque" style looked elegant and personable.
After the death of N.N.Demidov, the heirs divided the plot: the house on the Neva with 17 rooms was received by the eldest son - Evdokim Nikitich Demidov, and the house on Galernaya with 10 rooms - by his brother Nikita Jr., who sold it to Evdokim in 1769. Evdokim had six sons and five daughters. According to his will, Ivan Evdokimovich passed the site on Galernaya, where Bobrinsky's palace was later built. The sons of the late Evdokim, in 1782, sold their property to their uncle, Nikita Nikitich Jr. (1728 - 1804), who died childless.
The Demidov House on the Neva, soon after its construction, became a permanent place for holding auctions, where everything was sold - from dishes and clothes to paintings and various curiosities.
From the heirs of N.N.Demidov Jr., the corner mansion in 1809, according to the deed of purchase, passed to the physician-in-chief Yakov Vasilyevich Willie (1765 & ndash 1854), director of the Military medical department.
In the late 1820s, Willie took care of the external and internal reconstruction of the building in the Empire style. A hall with pilasters and a vaulted room have been preserved in the interior from this time. Willie rented out apartments in the outbuildings. In one of them, in February 1835, a daughter, Maria, Lenin's future mother, was born to the head physician Alexander Dmitrievich Blank. She was baptized in St. Isaac's Cathedral, since her father converted from Judaism to Orthodoxy in order to enter the Medical and Surgical Academy. From the director of the academy, Blank rented an apartment on the second floor of the western wing.
After the death of Willie, his executors on March 6, 1859 sold the mansion to the stock broker Karl Karlovich Feleisen (1799 - 1875), who worked as an assistant to the famous banker L. Stieglitz. Feleisen had in 1872, shortly before his death, to sell a house on the Neva, at a loss, to the merchant of the first guild, the German Fedor Fedorovich Gaush. Four years later, Feleisen's widow parted with the house on Galernaya. The famous physician Sergei Petrovich Botkin became its owner
Gausch presented the house to his wife Matilda, who made some changes: a southern wing was built (1893, E. I. Gelman) and an outbuilding was added (1896 - 1897, V. A. Shreter). In 1897, Schröter's project was approved for a complete redesign of the entire building in an eclectic style, but it was not implemented. Ten years later, the mistress of the house died, and the house passed to her sons - Leonty and Alexander. The latter graduated from the Academy of Arts, was a prominent landscape painter and a member of the "World of Art", and since 1912 - curator of the "Old Petersburg" museum. In the halls of the mezzanine, the "world of art" people often gathered, theatrical performances were staged. In 1924, due to the illness of his wife-artist, a student of K. Roerich, Gaush moved to Crimea, where he died during the Great Patriotic War.
After October revolution the mansion was nationalized and populated with a "labor element". Since 1911, the priest Vladimir Alexandrovich Rybakov (1870 - 1934), rector of the Church of the Savior on the Waters, lived in the western wing. He greatly mourned the demolition in 1932 of the temple, which was visible from the windows of his apartment. The main house now houses a security company. All other premises are occupied by residential apartments.

Yakov Fedorovich Willie - bright historical personality, has been at the helm of military medicine for almost 50 years Russian Empire, headed the Medical-Surgical Academy for almost 30 years. He served as the personal physician of three Russian emperors and was an ardent keeper of many of his patients' family secrets.
The twenty-two-year-old Scottish physician James Wiley, renamed Yakov Vasilyevich Willie in Russian, first set foot on St. Petersburg land in September 1790. Here he was awaited by the post of a doctor in the 33rd Yelets infantry regiment, and very soon he was able to show his best side in it.
After serving five years in the regiment, the energetic and successful surgeon decided to take up private practice in St. Petersburg. A fortunate chance helped me to make a fast career. Having shown ingenuity and surgical skill, he literally saved the sick ambassador of the Danish court.
Just a couple of months after this incident, Paul I appoints Willie as a court operator. And when a capable Scotsman brought Count A.P. Kutaisov, the title of Life Surgeon was perceived by him as well deserved. Ya. V. Willie began to operate a lot, and undertook the treatment of difficult cases, while demonstrating skill, firmness and decisiveness.
His fame as a surgeon and knowledgeable physician grew, and after the life of Paul I was cut short on the night of March 12, 1801, the new emperor Alexander I left Willie in his previous position, showing the same attention to him as his father.
I'M IN. Willie turned out to be not only a good surgeon, but also a capable administrator. This quality played a role in the appointment of Willie at first as an inspector for the medical unit of the Guard, and since 1806 - as the chief medical inspector for the army.
Especially noticeable was the activity of Ya. V. Willie during the Patriotic War of 1812, when he was assigned the task of providing medical support to the three hundred thousandth Russian army. He spent the entire campaign in the army, leading the medical service in the battles near Smolensk, Borodino, Vyazma, and then on the territory of Europe - at Bautsen, Kulm, Briand.
Heading the medical business in the army, Jacob Willie at the same time was, since 1808, the president of the Medical and Surgical Academy - a training center for the army, navy and the entire empire. Under him, the first charter of the academy was adopted, the number of departments increased, a botanical garden was laid out, the publication of the "General Journal of Medical Sciences" began, and then the "Military Medical Journal" - a periodical scientific and practical publication that has been published to this day.
Willie's merits include his desire to train and promote the cadres of Russian medical scientists, giving them preference over foreign applicants. To carry out this task, he was helped by his appointment in February 1812 as director of the medical department of the Ministry of War (while maintaining all other posts).
Heading all Russian military medicine, J.V. Willie contributed in every possible way to its development. Since 1843, since 1843, he was also the chairman of the Military Medical Training Committee, J.V. Willie supported sensible proposals, recommended for publication science articles... And he himself was published: it was possible to identify 20 published works of his in Russian, French and Latin... Many of them were reprinted several times.
In addition to his professional activity, Yakov Vasilyevich Willie was one of the most cultured people of his era, a polyglot, a book lover, a lover of literature. In St. Petersburg, Willie's close friends became prominent writers, leading Russian journalists of that period: N.I. Grech and F.V. Bulgarin. They traditionally dined with Dr. Willie on Wednesdays, according to a contemporary, the famous writer A.E. Izmailov, who himself was a member of Willie's circle of friends. House of Ya.V. Willie saw a lot of heated literary and journalistic disputes between prominent figures in Russian literature and culture.
It is no coincidence that on September 12, 1802, it was Dr. Willie who was sent by Alexander I to assist the outstanding Russian publicist A.N. Radishchev, who enjoyed the sympathy of the liberal-minded tsar and worked at that time in the government commission on reforms. Radishchev poisoned himself with nitric acid and died in terrible torment... Willie tried to save the writer, but to no avail.
Having lived a long, eventful life (he died at the age of 85), Yakov Vasilyevich Willie achieved the title of a real privy councilor, was awarded many Russian and foreign orders, and bequeathed most of his fortune to Russia. With these funds, a clinical hospital was built for the Medical-Surgical Academy at the corner of Botkinskaya Street and Bolshoy Sampsonievsky Prospect, which still exists today.
The “physician of the Russian tsars,” the life surgeon of Paul I, Alexander I and Nicholas I, was buried at the Volkovskoe Lutheran cemetery in St. Petersburg.
