Saint Petersburg was founded in 1703 by Peter the Great, Russia's first and the most famous Emperor.
For more than 200 years, St. Petersburg was the capital of Russia and the main residence of 13 Russian
Emperors. The city combines its fascinating heritage with a distinctly European outlook and offers
a vibrant cultural life and precious art collections. During the 18th and 19th centuries European and
Russian architects have built great palaces, cathedrals and parks in St. Petersburg. Today,
over 100 palaces of Russian nobility and more than 80 museums can be visited.
