In the vicinity of St. Petersburg, over 200 years of its imperial history, a real constellation of imperial residences has formed. Some of them, for example Peterhof, despite the colossal losses of the war years, continue to shine with all their colors. Others, such as Ropsha, are practically lost. Still others are in the shadow of their brilliant neighbors. The latter includes the Alexander Palace of Tsarskoye Selo. At the same time, the Alexander Palace occupies a special place among the suburban imperial residences, primarily because the reflection of the tragic fate of the last imperial family, the family of Nicholas II, lay on its walls. It was from this palace that the family was taken early in the morning on August 1, 1917 to Siberia, from where they were not destined to return ... Today the palace lives a new life. There is a permanent exhibition that tells about its history and owners. The museum space of the second floor and basement is being developed, new front rooms are being restored and opened... Many people, who are not professional art historians or historians, know and love the Alexander Palace very well. This book, with its innumerable details and details, is addressed to them.
