This is the main building of St. Petersburg Pedagogical University. Future teachers study here. I really hope that when you look at these photos, you feel the same way I do. You see a quiet corner of the city, a cozy estate with a park, which is very pleasant to sit in.

If so, I managed to convey the atmosphere of this place. The architect J. B. Wallen-Delamot built in the 1760s a stone building in the style of early classicism for the president of the Academy of Sciences, Count Kirill Grigoryevich Razumovsky. This is a very rare example of a city estate with a regular garden; most of the buildings of this type have not survived to our time.

In 1781, the palace was bought out and transferred to the Orphanage for disadvantaged children: orphans, foundlings. Throughout the XVIII century on the estate there were a shelter and schools. The Imperial Women's Pedagogical Institute was founded in 1903. The institute continued to train teachers after the revolution. He ceased to be exclusively female, since 1918 people of both sexes studied.

Monument to Russian teacher Konstantin Ushinsky stands in front of the main entrance. Other monuments and plaques are on the territory of the institute. The history of this educational institution is so interesting and diverse that a small museum was created to preserve memory.
