It is shown that the use of a laser gyroscope permits us to verify Einstein's equivalence principle for photons with an accuracy up to 10-16. It is proposed to carry out an experiment with the laser gyroscope mounted on the mechanical gyroscopic platform. Since the mechanical gyroscopic platform, on the whole, consists of nucleons, then the laser gyroscope can be regarded as mounted in a nonrotational frame of reference for the nucleons with a high level of accuracy. If the equivalence principle with respect to rotation is violated on a certain level of accuracy, then this frame of reference will be a rotational one for photons moving inside the laser gyroscope and the laser gyroscope will register the presence of this relative rotation.
