Quarters of His Majesty's Own Cossack Escort, Military quarters complex in Pushkin, Russia

The building complex features traditional Russian military architecture with distinct barracks, administrative sections, and ceremonial spaces spread across multiple structures.

Established during the imperial era, these quarters housed elite Cossack guards who served as personal security for the Russian Emperor until 1917.

The quarters represent the strong connection between Russian monarchy and Cossack military traditions through architectural elements and spatial organization.

Located near Tsarskoye Selo palace, the quarters maintain their original structural layout and can be reached by local transport from Saint Petersburg.

The complex housed exactly 400 Cossack guards at any time, divided equally between Terek and Kuban Cossack regiments.
