Private Garden of the Winter Palace
Private Garden of the Winter Palace, Private garden beside Winter Palace, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The garden consists of a rectangular lawn with trees and shrubs, connected by a cobbled carriage drive to the palace entrance.
In 1885, Tsaritsa Maria Feodorovna initiated the transformation of a paved courtyard into a garden space for the royal residence.
The garden design reflects late 19th century Russian imperial preferences, combining formal landscaping with functional access routes for the royal family.
A high wall topped with railings surrounds the garden, creating a secluded space that separates it from the public areas.
Georg Kuphaldt, director of Riga's city gardens, developed the second section in 1896 specifically for Tsaritsa Alexandra Feodorovna's children.
