Il palazzo si trova nella città di Puskin (precedentemente chiamata Carskoe Selo), a circa 25 chilometri a sudest di San Pietroburgo. Il complesso fa parte di un insieme di palazzi e parchi della città di Puskin, dichiarati Patrimonio dell'Umanità. Il palazzo venne iniziato ufficialmente nel 1717, quando Caterina I di Russia assunse l'architetto tedesco Johann-Friedrich Braunstein per costruire un palazzo estivo per il proprio svago. L'Imperatrice Elisabetta rimodernò il palazzo secondo il proprio gusto nel 1752, rendendolo più lussuoso e utilizzando più di 100 chili di oro per la facciata e le statue del tetto. Tuttavia, il Palazzo si associa a Caterina II di Russia (Chiamata la Grande), che decise di fermare i lavori quando venne informata degli alti costi e che nelle sue memorie censurò l'imprudente stravaganza dell'Imperatrice Elisabetta. 'Imperatrice Caterina II assunse un architetto scozzese, che rimodernò il palazzo in stile neopalladiano (di moda a quel tempo) e costruì gli appartamenti personali dell'imperatrice, così come nuove strutture nel parco per lo svago dell'imperatrice.

Beautiful building... I was there in 2009, now 10 years ago, and unfortunately the main façade was in maintenance covered by scaffolding...
