Among the latest additions to the Constitution of Russia was the inclusion of the State Council of the Russian Federation in it. Its final status was enshrined in a special federal law. However, this organ has more than two hundred years of history. The article aims to analyze the status and purpose of the State Council, starting from the period of its inception in monarchist Russia at the beginning of the 19th century and up to the present. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the fact that the author, on the basis of a comparative analysis of both historical and modern normative material, made a conclusion about the new role of the State Council in the mechanism of the Russian state at the beginning of the third decade of the twenty-first century. It is substantiated that one of the main vectors of the State Council is the coordination of the activities of all bodies of the unified system of public authority. The use of a variety of methodological tools (methods of dialectical knowledge, historical, comparative legal, formal legal, etc.) made it possible to identify the features of the State Council as a body that strengthens the power of the President and assists in the implementation of the constitutional powers assigned to it.
