|
|
|
|
The main attraction of Strelna is the residence of the President of Russian Federation located in the Konstantinovsky Palace.
Peter the Great was the first owner of the residence. In 1797 the residence was presented by Paul I to his second son the Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich. Since that time the palace got the name Konstantinovsky.
The National Congress Palace was opened in 2003. It is used as the government residence, business centre and museum. The renovated Konstantinovsky Palace is the real gem of the complex.
Join one of the excursions offered by the National Congress Palace and see the beautiful interiors of the palace, its superb collections and enjoy the walk in the palace park.
The history of the residence and its restoration is presented on the special exhibitions.
