Petrovsky Square

Petrovsky Square in Petrozavodsk is located in the area of the monument to Emperor Peter the Great and is bounded by the Onega Embankment from the southwest. The central area of the square is paved with Shoksha crimson quartzite, from which eight paths radiate. In the center of the territory, a monument to Peter I is installed, the pedestal of which was restored in 2011 together with the restoration of the inscription. From the square, there is a view of the water area of Lake Onega, and from the southeast, the Water Terminal and Karl Marx Avenue adjoin it.
