Pavilion of Rossi (Pavlovsk)

The Rossi Pavilion in Pavlovsk Park is a gazebo designed by Carlo Rossi in 1816 and built by architect Carl Schmidt. Its columns, pylons, and pilasters, stylized in the Tuscan order, are finished with plaster, and the pedestal of the monument is made of pink granite with a high, smooth plinth. During the Great Patriotic War, a military cemetery was established in front of the pavilion, where German and Spanish soldiers were buried, and their remains were exhumed and reburied in the early 2000s. The object has the status of a cultural heritage site of federal significance, assigned by a decree of the Russian government in 2001.
