Bobrinsky Palace, Palace near Galernaya Street, Saint Petersburg, Russia

The Bobrinsky Palace exhibits classical architecture with two floors, large windows, and a central portico facing the Admiralty Canal and Galernaya Street.

The palace, constructed between 1792 and 1796 by architect Luigi Rusca, became the residence of Count Alexei Bobrinsky, son of Catherine II.

During the 19th century, the palace hosted literary gatherings attended by Alexander Pushkin, Vasily Zhukovsky, and Prince Pyotr Vyazemsky.

The palace functions as part of Saint Petersburg State University's Faculty of Liberal Arts and Sciences, offering guided tours by appointment.

Count Alexei Bobrinsky, who lived in the palace, created daguerreotypes that are now preserved in the State Hermitage Museum collection.
