Aviaries, Bird pavilion in Lower Park of Peterhof, Russia
The Aviaries consist of ornate enclosures featuring decorative railings, gazebos, and detailed architectural elements within the gardens of Peterhof Palace complex.
Peter the Great incorporated these structures into his grand vision for Peterhof during the early eighteenth century, drawing inspiration from European royal residences.
The pavilions demonstrate the Russian nobility's interest in exotic birds and natural elements, integrating them into formal garden arrangements of the imperial estate.
Visitors can access the Aviaries through guided tours of the Lower Park, with detailed schedules and admission information available at the main entrance.
The structures maintain their original function as bird sanctuaries while serving as protected architectural monuments within a UNESCO World Heritage site.
