Tsar's Mill

The Tsar's Mill is located in the Lugovoy Park of Peterhof at the address that gave its name to Melnichnaya Street. The complex, designed by A. I. Stackenschneider and E. L. Gan, with a pond, islets, and a stone dam designed by M. I. Pilsudsky, is protected as a cultural heritage site of Russia. The miller's house, which was vacated in 2000 and lost its terrace and balcony, was transferred to St. Petersburg State University in 2009 and restored while preserving part of the original structures. A garden was laid out around the mill, and the slopes of the pond and the shores of the islands were paved with cobblestones and covered with turf.
