Petergof
Information





Peterhof is worth visiting because it is a unique place where history, architecture, art, and nature merge into a single ensemble that is rightfully considered one of the most beautiful in Europe.
Why you need to visit Peterhof :
1. Famous Fountains. This is the main reason people visit Peterhof. The Lower Park is home to over 150 fountains and four cascades, while the Upper Garden has several fountains and a cascade. The central fountain of the Grand Cascade, "Samson Tearing the Lion's Jaws," symbolizes Russia's victory in the Northern War.
2. Luxurious Palaces and Architecture. The Grand Palace of Peterhof is the heart of the complex. Its sumptuous Baroque interiors, adorned with gilding, marble, and paintings, are breathtaking. Besides the palace, the smaller palaces of Monplaisir and Marly, built according to Peter the Great's designs, are also worth seeing.
3. A rich historical heritage: Peterhof served as the ceremonial summer residence of Russian emperors for two centuries. Each ruler contributed to the development of the ensemble. Today, it is a museum-reserve, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After the devastation of the Great Patriotic War, Peterhof was restored and continues to delight today.
