Grand Menshikov Palace

The Great Menshikov Palace is located on the territory of the palace and park ensemble "Oranienbaum" of the city of Lomonosov. The palace is the oldest and central building of the park.

The main part of the palace is a two-storey one, which is joined by one-storey galleries. They are deployed in an arc and end with the Church and Japanese pavilions. Perpendicular to the galleries to the pavilions adjoin two wings. Thus, the palace in the layout is represented by the letter “P”.

Restoration of the palace began in the early 1990s. In 2010, the restoration of the facades of the palace was completed, and in early autumn 2011, a museum was opened in the palace.
