English Park (Peterhof)

The English Park in Peterhof, located on Peterhof Street, emerged around a pond created in 1720 by damming the Trinity Stream. Water from this pond flows through a system of sluices into the Upper Garden Canal, and then to the western side of the Grand Cascade. The park's territory contains the ruins of the English Palace, destroyed by artillery fire in 1942 and not restored after the war, on the site of which a stele now stands. In a semi-neglected state, according to data from 2016, the park is used by local residents as a place for picnics.
