Tsaritsyno is a large park containing architectural landmarks and museums. The park includes a palace complex, greenhouses, ponds, a musical fountain, and other features. The museum-reserve covers approximately 400 hectares.
The Tsar’s residence, Tsaritsyno, was founded by order of Empress Catherine II in 1776. The palace was built in the so-called “Russian Gothic” (pseudo-Gothic) style. The palace and other buildings remained unused for many years. Currently, it hosts exhibitions and other events. The park is a popular place for strolls in fine weather. Classical and contemporary music concerts are held in the halls of the Grand Palace and the park grounds (in summer). Tsaritsyno is also the site of music festivals.
