1 ~~~ Walking through the halls of the Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg, Russia ~~~ 123
The Winter Palace in Saint Petersburg, Russia, was, from 1732 to 1917, the official residence of the Russian monarchs.
Today, the restored palace forms part of a complex of buildings housing the Hermitage Museum.
Situated between the Palace Embankment and the Palace Square, adjacent
to the site of Peter the Great's original Winter Palace, the present
and fourth Winter Palace was built and altered almost continuously between the late 1730s and 1837,
when it was severely damaged by fire and immediately rebuilt.
The storming of the palace in 1917 as depicted in Soviet paintings and Eisenstein's 1927 film October became an iconic symbol of the Russian Revolution.
