12 March 2026

This Sunday, October 18th, the Peterhof fountains operating season 2020 was officially closed. The fountain celebrations, both spring and autumn ones, which traditionally take place with a large number of guests, were canceled this year. An exception was the celebration of the 315th anniversary of the founding of the royal residence of Peterhof: on September 12th, the museum-reserve celebrated it with fireworks and a ceremonial launch of fountains, which for the first time in 2020 took place with the participation of visitors.

Peterhof was founded in 1710 by Peter the Great. He also created a park with fountains in the residence, modeled on Versailles. The fountain system of Peterhof is one of the largest in the world, it consists of 147 fountains and 70% of it has preserved the historical equipment of the 18th-19th centuries. The Peterhof Museum Reserve is one of the most popular tourist sites in Russia. Over 6.2 million people visited it in 2019.
