Александровский дворец (также известный как Новый дворец, Царскосельский дворец) был построен в 1792—1796 годах по распоряжению императрицы Екатерины II в подарок к бракосочетанию её внука, великого князя Александра Павловича (будущего императора Александра I). Проект дворца составил знаменитый итальянский архитектор Джакомо Кваренги
The Alexander Palace is a former imperial residence at Tsarskoye Selo, on a plateau around 30 minutes by train from St Petersburg. It is known as the favourite residence of the last Russian Emperor, Nicholas II, and his family and their initial place of imprisonment after the revolution that overthrew the Romanov dynasty in early 1917. The Alexander Palace is situated in the Alexander Park, not far from the larger Catherine Palace.
