Guided tour to Oranienbaum (Lomonosov)

Construction works in Oranienbaum (Lomonosov) started at the very beginning of XVIII century. It was then that Peter I presented a plot of land on the southern coast of the Gulf of Finland to his associate and favorite Alexander Menshikov, who at that time served as Governor of St. Petersburg. Menshikov immediately started construction of his own Grand Palace, which even overshadowed by its splendor the Emperor’s palace, built in the nearby Peterhof. Surprisingly enough, the Oranienbaum palace has survived almost intact.
