Saint Petersburg Highway

The Saint Petersburg Highway in Strelna is part of the historic Peterhof Road, laid out in 1710 as a route to the imperial residences. This highway features such significant objects as the Sergius Hermitage of the Coastal Desert, the Strelna Post House, the "Znamenka" estate, and the Chapel of the Venerable Joseph the Hymnographer. Along the road, three milestone posts from 1777–1787 have been preserved, which are attributed to the architect Antonio Rinaldi. In the 20th century, the name of the highway changed to Petrogradskoye and Leningradskoye due to the renaming of the city.
