Мрачная крепость Романовых или забытый символ власти? | ГАТЧИНСКИЙ ДВОРЕЦ

Gatchina Palace is the fortress Paul I dug to escape conspirators. He did not escape. Alexander III lived here for 13 years in voluntary confinement. The story of two prisoners in one palace. One palace. Three centuries of secrets. Two monarchs who turned it into their own prison. Why didn't Russia's most fortified palace save its owner? What do the underground passages, unknown to almost everyone, conceal? And where did the twenty-seven thousand priceless exhibits disappear to, never to be seen again? We've traveled the entire journey from the glittering hunts of Catherine the Great's era to the scorched halls of military occupation. We've found documents not mentioned in textbooks. And we've learned exactly what Paul I hid within the walls of Gatchina before his death. This story doesn't end with the death of its last owner. It continues to this day. #GatchinaPalace #PaulI #AlexanderIII #SecretsoftheRomanovs #HistoryofRussia #DocumentaryVideo #ImperialRussia #RiddlesofHistory #RussianPalaces #Romanovs
