Constantine Palace, Baroque palace in Strelna, Russia

The Constantine Palace stands against the Finnish Gulf with white and blue facades, decorated marble halls, and symmetrical gardens extending toward the water.

Peter the Great initiated the construction in 1720, appointing French architect Jean-Baptiste Alexandre Le Blond to design this residence near Saint Petersburg.

The palace displays collections of Russian paintings by Repin, Bruyllov, and Serov, along with original furniture from the 18th and 19th centuries.

Visitors can access three main areas through guided tours: the Blue Hall, Marble Hall with Gulf views, and Belveder Hall for press events.

The palace functions as the National Congress Palace since 2003, hosting international summits including G20 meetings and diplomatic conferences.
