Summary edit
| Description |
English: The Winter Palace of the Tsars is now the main building of the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. It was built in 1754-1762 for Empress Elizabeth, daughter of Peter the Great. It was not completed until after her death, and Empress Catherine the Great was the first monarch to live there.
The palace is about 150 m (500 ft) long. It has 1,057 rooms, 1,945 windows, and 1,786 doors. (At least, that is one set of numbers) The principal architect was Bartolomeo Rastrelli, who designed many of the grand buildings in and around St. Petersburg. This photo is geotagged. |
