Konstantinovsky Palace

The Konstantin Palace in Strelna, also known as the Grand Strelna Palace, is an architectural monument of the 18th century and forms a palace and park ensemble. The estate received its name in 1797 when Paul I gifted it to Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich. The palace collection features furniture from the 18th and 19th centuries, silver, porcelain, and paintings by Valentin Serov, Karl Bryullov, Nicholas Roerikh, and Ilya Repin. In 2001–2003, the building was fully restored for the tercentenary of St. Petersburg, and on May 12, 2008, the Rostropovich-Vishnevskaya collection exhibition was held here, opened by the Prime Minister of Russia.
