Cottage Palace, Gothic style estate in Petergof, Russia.
The Cottage Palace features neo-Gothic architecture with white walls, multiple gables, and decorative elements spread across its two-story structure.
Nicholas I commissioned the palace in 1826 as a private summer residence, marking a shift from grand ceremonial spaces to more intimate family dwellings.
The palace interior contains a collection of paintings, furniture, and personal items belonging to the Russian imperial family from the 19th century.
Visitors can reach the palace by taking a hydrofoil from Saint Petersburg to Petergof or using regular train services to Novy Petergof station.
The palace grounds include a telegraph station from 1858, which connected the residence directly with the Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg.
