Admiralty Embankment, Riverside promenade in central Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Admiralty Embankment extends for 414 meters along the Neva River, connecting Decembrists Square with the Palace Bridge in Saint Petersburg.
Engineers V. M. Karlowicz and S. S. Selyavionov constructed the embankment between 1763 and 1767, replacing the former location of the Admiralty Shipyard.

From 1919 to 1944, the embankment carried the name Roshal in recognition of revolutionary figure S. G. Roshal.
