A very interesting place, primarily for its history: Napoleon lived, Konstantin Pavlovich Romanov died, and in recent history it has been a state security institution.
Now the building has been handed over to the city and they plan to make repairs in it.
The most interesting thing. that on Sundays at 12.00 from the town hall to the palace there are group tours (9 rubles per person) with visits, including the "Napoleonic" balcony and basement. And a tour guide is, in general, "something" (in the good sense of the word).
Emperor Napoleon lived in this palace for 16 days in 1812. Here they decided to continue the "Russian Company" and move to Moscow. Subsequently, Napoleon regretted this decision for the rest of his life.
The entrance to the Palace is quite convenient, especially on a motorcycle - we came here on it.
The Palace looks very good, but the main thing is its historical significance.
Приятная органичная архитектура. Удобное место для прогулок. В сквере 1812 немноголюдно и можно спокойно посидеть наслаждаясь архитектурным ансамблем вокруг.
It's a very beautiful building.❤️❤️❤️I advise everyone to visit 🔥🔥🔥

The coolest architectural monument. With an impressive story about the war of 1812... the great sadness is that this heritage of the city is closed to the public, because someone is busy - it shouldn't be like this. A cool place for tourists of the "cultural capital", but apparently this will never happen

It was interesting to see the place where Napoleon made the main mistake of the entire campaign of 1812

You can't get inside. The exterior is well maintained and not very interesting. Inspect. It is possible on the way to Chagall.
Мы были с утра, вопросов по автостоянке не возникло, хотя днем вероятно будут. Про дворец - достойно, массивно, в то же время без выпендрежа показушного.
Территори вокруг, подход к ручью, тропинки почти вертикальные... - все требует доведения "до ума", с учетом, что это не дикая природа, а территория возле памятника архитектуры.
