Andrei Voronikhin»s design was inspired by Bernini»s colonnade for St. Peter»s in Rome. From 1811-1858, the Kazan Cathedral was the main cathedral of the city. After 1932, when the cathedral was closed, the building housed the Museum of the History of Religion and Atheism. In 1991 services were resumed and it is again fully functional as an Orthodox church.

A FEW FINAL SUGGESTIONS...
Despite our best efforts, some notable points of interest in St. Petersburg lie outside the route of your walking tour. If time permits, we urge you to inquire at your hotel or with your tour escorts about how to visit these places.
The cruiser Aurora, moored in the Neva River opposite the St. Petersburg Hotel, fired the shot which signalled the launching of the Revolution in 1917.
The Smolny complex of buildings, featuring an outstanding cathedral, was originally designed as a convent, but was used for decades as a school for the daughters of the nobility. A building located nearby served as the famous headquarters for the Bolsheviks during the Revolution in 1917.
Located one-half hour»s drive to the west of the city, Peterhof was built by direction of Peter the Great to commemorate Russia»s victories in the Northern War. Over one hundred and forty fountains and cascades adorn the spacious grounds, which are dominated by a lavish palace. Allow a full day.
Tsarskoye Selo, also known as Pushkin, lies about one-half hour south of the city and once provided a nearby retreat for the royal family. A single structure, the splendid Catherine Palace, dominates the complex of parks and build-sags. The Lyceum, nearby the palace, contains a museum devoted to Alexander Pushkin, the famous poet who once studied here.
Finally, several cemeteries deserve consideration. On the grounds of the Alexander Nevsky Monastery, in the Tikhvinskoye and Lazarevskoye cemeteries, are buried many eminent Russians, including the writer Dostoevsky and the composer Tchaikovsky. To the northeast of the city»s center, the Piskarovskoye Memorial Cemetery stands as a moving, solemn tribute to more than one-half million victims of the seige of the city during World War II.
