Gatchina Farm

Gatchina, Krasnoarmeysky Avenue, 21

The Palace Farm in Gatchina is located at 21 Krasnoarmeysky Prospekt, and the walls of its main building are faced with Pudost limestone. The dome painting was restored by restorers R. P. Sausen, V. V. Zverev, and O. Yu. Pedayas, while another part of the building housed a cowshed, dairy, water boiler room, and servants' rooms. Along the ceremonial facade were rooms overlooking the river for receiving owners and guests, interiors decorated with expensive paintings and farma. Since 1930, the educational farm of the Leningrad Zootechnical Institute was located here, and in 2020, white peacocks and a pair of emus from the St. Petersburg Zoo named Yerofey and Praskovya appeared at the farm. As of 2026, the entrance ticket costs 300 rubles for adults and 150 rubles for students and pensioners of the Russian Federation.
