  • The Stroganov Palace (Russian: Строгановский дворец) is a Late Baroque palace at the intersection of the Moika River and Nevsky Prospekt in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The palace was built to Bartolomeo Rastrelli’s designs for Count Sergei Grigoriyevich Stroganov in 1753.

    The interiors were remodeled by Andrey Voronikhin in the 1790s. Today, the palace is part of the Russian Museum and is used as an exhibition hall.
