Stone Hall

Lomonosov, Upper Park, between the Grand Menshikov Palace and the Katalnaya Gorka Pavilion

The Stone Hall, a pavilion in the Upper Park of Lomonosov, was built in 1749–1751, and its probable author is considered to be M. G. Zemtsov. In 1824, the building was renovated under the supervision of architect V. P. Stasov, during which the wooden wings were dismantled. Today, the pavilion houses an exhibition of park and interior sculpture of Oranienbaum, which houses the statues "Omphale" and "Apollo and Daphne," and also features an interactive cinema. In the 1750s, the Triple Linden Alley was laid along the axis of the building, becoming the first planning axis of the new garden.
