About Nicholas Palace

Nicholas Palace was one of a few St Petersburg royal residences outlined by Andreas Stackensneider 1802-65 for the offspring of Nicholas I of Russia. The royal residence of Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaievich of Russia frames some portion of a sprawling complex joining a palatial church, a manege, and a few sheds isolated from Labor Square by a cast-press fence. In 1894 the building returned to the crown and was changed into the Xenia Institute for Noble Young Ladies.

It was depicted by E. M. Almedingen in her diaries at specific capacities in the immense framed white lobby it was anything but difficult to envision yourself dove into the court life of the late eighteenth century. The royal residence, for all its colossal size, was delightful. The breadth of that grand, dim marble staircase, bending off to one side and the left, more likely than not been a compositional wonder. They played in lobbies, their high roofs upheld by Corinthian columns, their dividers secured with most perfect framing.

They read and concentrated in rooms with dazzling mirrors, confined in the looked over and carven dreams of incredible craftsmen. They dozed in quarters, their dividers secured by fragile frescoes. The perfect staircase, cleared down to a corridor where an enormous Cerberus of a doorman, wonderful in red and gold, remained on obligation. The immense front entryways, awe inspiring with cut wood and sheets of cut glass, were about constantly shut.
