Krasnoye Selo, Historic city municipality in Saint Petersburg, Russia

Krasnoye Selo stands on the Duderhof Heights, forming a southwestern district of Saint Petersburg with industrial and residential zones.

The settlement transformed from three villages into a military training ground and summer residence for Russian tsars after its establishment in 1730.

The Troitskaya Church, constructed in 1735 and rebuilt in 1854, represents the religious architectural heritage of the municipality.

The municipality maintains several manufacturing facilities, including a paper mill from 1764, metal processing plants, and food production industries.

In 1884, Alexander Mozhaysky conducted pioneering aviation experiments here, achieving a powered flight distance of 30 meters with his early monoplane.
