Online project “The Ensemble of the Senate and Synod buildings”

Marking the 13th anniversary of the formation of the Presidential Library and the All-Russian Day of Libraries the Presidential Library has prepared an online project “The Ensemble of the Senate and Synod buildings”. The architectural ensemble of the Senate and the Synod is housed on Senate Square in the historic center in St. Petersburg. This place is associated with the history of St. Petersburg and the Russian Empire. Not only the history of the city, but the entire state has been changed in the functional purpose, architecture and nature of local buildings as in a mirror. The Internet project provides opportunity to learn about the main milestones in the development of the territory where the Presidential Library is housed, the history of the creation of the ensemble of the Senate and the Synod buildings as well as the activities of institutions located here at different times.
