  • Ekaterinhof or Catherinehof (Russian: Екатеринго́ф < German: Katharinenhof "Catherine's Court") is a historic island park that began as an 18 century empress's estate in the south-west of St Petersburg, Russia. Its name originated in 1711, when Peter the Great presented the Island and adjacent lands along the eponymous to his wife Catherine (Catherine I of Russia), whose name they memorialize. The emperor apparently conceived Catherinehof as the first imperial estate located on the road leading from the capital to his main summer residence, Peterhof. He commissioned a two-storey wooden palace, a canal, and a harbour to be constructed there. For his daughters, the estates of Annenhof and Elisavethof were projected. A pet project of Peter I, the estate was abandoned following his death. His niece Empress Anna (reigned in 1730-40) added two wings to the palace, but these were demolished in 1779. As the succeeding monarchs preferred to develop Tsarskoe Selo as their alternative summer residence, Catherinehof suffered from neglect until 1800, when Emperor Paul donated it to his mistress, Anna Gagarina. Four years later, the estate passed to the City of St Petersburg, which developed it as a municipal amusement park, with many garden pavilions and a "vauxhall" for musical exercises constructed on the grounds. The main palace housed a library and a museum dedicated to Peter I. The Petrine park was considerably expanded and became so popular with St Petersburgers that allusions to it may be found in such works as Casanova's memoirs and Dostoyevsky's novels. With the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the formerly quiet and reclusive neighbourhood became an industrial suburb of the Russian capital. The park fell into neglect after the palace had been destroyed by fire in 1924. Several years ago, a private fund announced plans to rebuild the derelict palace. [1] Three years after the World War II that greatly damaged the city the park was revived under a new name commemorating 30th anniversary of the national youth Communist league Komsomol, and in 1955 its front half was decorated with a large sculpture portraying the recently famous group of martyred young anti-Nazi underground resistance members of Young Guard cell from the Soviet Ukraine's southeast coal mining town of Krasnodon, whose heroic struggle was described in a famous novel, named after the group, by Alexander Fadeeyev. Apart from the garden, which goes back to the 18th century, places of interest around Catherinehof include the Narva Triumphal Gate, the metochion of the Valaam Monastery, and a granite column reputedly commissioned by Catherine I to commemorate her executed lover William Mons. St. Catherine's Church was founded in Catherinehof in 1703 and, as local lore has it, witnessed the secret wedding of Peter I and Catherine in 1707. Konstantin Thon replaced the old church with a much larger structure in his hallmark Russo-Byzantine style; but the massive five-domed building was overhauled in the 1890s before being torn down by the Soviets in 1929.

  • Ekaterinhof (Russo: Екатеринго́ф Ekateringòf) è un distretto storico a sud-ovest di San Pietroburgo. Deriva il suo nome dal fatto che nel 1711 Pietro il Grande regalò l' e le terre adiacenti lungo il fiume a sua moglie Caterina, da cui ogni cosa prese il nome. L'imperatore concepì Ekaterinhof come la prima proprietà imperiale situata sulla strada che conduce dalla capitale alla sua principale residenza estiva, Peterhof: fece costruire un palazzetto lignea a due piani, un canale e un porto e fece progettare per le sue figlie le proprietà di Annenhof ed Elizavethof. Dopo la morte dell'imperatore la proprietà fu pian piano abbandonata, anche se l'imperatrice Anna I di Russia aggiunse due ali al palazzo, demolite però nel 1779. Poiché i sovrani successivi a Pietro preferirono Tsarskoe Selo come residenza estiva alternativa, Ekaterinehof venne trascurata fino al 1800, quando l'imperatore Paolo I la donò alla sua amante, . Quattro anni dopo la proprietà passò alla città di San Pietroburgo che la sviluppò come parco di divertimenti comunale, con molti padiglioni del giardino ed una sala da concerti; il palazzo principale alloggiò una biblioteca ed un museo dedicato a Pietro il Grande. Il parco ben presto divenne molto popolare ed accenni ad esso si ritrovano nelle come nei romanzi di Dostoyevsky. Con l'inizio della Rivoluzione Industriale, il luogo, precedentemente calmo e isolato, divenne un sobborgo industriale della capitale russa ed il parco venne ben presto abbandonato a sé stesso dopoché un incendio distrusse il palazzo nel 1924: parecchi anni fa ci fu l'annuncio della possibilità di ricostruire l'edificio. Oltre al giardino, che risale al XVIII secolo, luoghi notevoli sono la Porta Trionfale di Narva, il metochion del monastero di Valaam e una colonna di granito commissionata da Caterina I per commemorare il suo defunto amante William Mons. La chiesa di Santa Caterina fu costruita a Ekaterinehof nel 1703 e probabilmente fu il luogo in cui venne celebrato il matrimonio segreto tra Pietro il Grande e Caterina nel 1707. Konstantin Andrejevič Thon al posto della chiesa vecchia ne creò una molto più grande con struttura a cinque cupole nel suo peculiare stile russo-bizantino, che venne ulteriormente ampliata poco dopo il 1890 e distrutta nel 1929 durante lo stalinismo.
