The Marble Palace

The Marble Palace, a unique monument of 18th-century architecture, is situated on the Palace Embankment of the Neva River in the historical centre of St Petersburg. It was designed by Italian architect Antonio Rinaldi (1709–1794) in 1768–1785. The palace was commissioned by Empress Catherine the Great as a present for General-Feldzeugmeister Count Grigory Orlov (1734–1783).
