Alexander Palace

The Alexander Palace in Tsarskoye Selo (Pushkin, Dvortsovaya Street, 2) became the permanent residence of Nicholas II in 1904. In 1896–1898, reconstructions destroyed the suite's half of the building, replacing it with the personal apartments of the Emperor and Alexandra Feodorovna, where the Maple Drawing Room and the Grand Study appeared in the left wing. In the 2020s, the Kitchen Wing houses the research institutions of the Tsarskoye Selo Museum-Reserve, and since 2011, the implementation of the palace adaptation project, divided into two phases in 2018, has been underway.
