Ruin Tower (Strelna)

Strelna, Saint Petersburg Highway, 78

The Ruined Tower in Strelna is a Gothic structure in Orlovsky Park, built according to the design of architect Pyotr Sadovnikov in 1835–1846. For a long time, the lower tier of the tower was filled with garbage and stone debris, but in 2016–2018 it was restored, and grilles with a simplified pattern were installed on the balconies. 13 million budget rubles were allocated for the restoration of the object, and during the work the nearby grotto was also repaired. In the 1960s–1970s, the structure was used for rock climbing training.
