Introduction

This palace is a unique federal historical and cultural architectural relic from the 18th to 20th century, with luxurious interior decoration worth seeing. The palace became famous because of a historical event. At that time, the monk Rasputin gained the admiration of noble women for curing the crown prince's illness, but he also made many enemies. On December 17, 1916, Yusupov entertained Rasputin here, poisoned him, and shot him, claiming that he died from drowning.
