Owner description:
Gatchina Palace and Estate Museum is located 45 km to the south-west of St.Petersburg. The unique atmosphere of the Royal country seat and glorious 18th century interiors are at your service.

While darkness and dampness of the mysterious underpass will let you feel the romance of the Russian Castle.
