The To-my-Dear-Comrades-in-Arms Gate
город Пушкин, Садовая улица, дом 7, литера А
On the south-east edge of the Catherine Park stands a monumental cast-iron gate that was erected to the design of Vasily Stasov in 1817 to mark Russia’s victory in the Patriotic (Russo-Napoleonic) War of 1812. The words inscribed on the gate – “To my Dear Comrades in Arms” – are those of Alexander I.
