Bagrationovsky garden, Garden square in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Bagrationovsky Garden is a green square in Saint Petersburg with multiple walkways and benches where carefully arranged trees and shrubs create shaded resting areas. Several entrances provide convenient access to the space from different directions.
The garden was created in 1950 during Saint Petersburg's post-war reconstruction and named after General Pyotr Bagration. Its layout reflects the urban planning ideals of that era, when green spaces were built for everyone.
The garden serves as a gathering space for local residents who come here to walk, rest, and meet friends throughout the day. It shapes the everyday rhythm of the neighborhood and draws people of all ages.
The garden is easy to reach on foot and offers year-round free access to visitors of all ages. The green spaces look their best in summer and spring, while winter provides a quieter experience.
The name honors a prominent military general from the Napoleonic era whose fame remained alive in the city long after his death. This naming choice was typical of Soviet practice to name public spaces after war heroes.
