- Le résumé -
It’s Rastrelli, the Italian architect, who also built Saint Petersbourg winter palace, that built this one in the 18th century. Today, the palace houses the University of Agriculture, but once upon a time, it was the Dukes residence.
- La petite histoire -
Louis XVIII and his family lived there when they escaped the French Revolution in 1797-1801.
- Le repas -
For fun, you can go check out the university’s mini cafeteria in the basement, but I didn’t see anything amazing:)
