Overview Tour of the Priory Palace

The Priory Palace is Gatchina’s landmark. This unique structure was conceived by the architect Nikolay Lvov for the knights of the Maltese order and constructed in 1799 of rammed earth.

The Museum offers a tour of the palace focusing on its history, the Maltese order, the building techniques used and the architect Lvov. Also displayed here are scale models of the palace and Chkalov street, which is among the town’s oldest streets.

Costume and Game Tour
Under the Maltese Star

We invite school groups to participate in this game tour. Welcomed by a Maltese knight, the school children will be asked for help in search of the valuable relic that was lost. All along the walk of the palace, the participants will be looking for prompts to fulfill the Knight’s task. They will be knighted then as a token of gratitude.
