The first square built on the edge of the Hermitage in 1700, it has been the preferred venue for parades and events of all kinds since that time. The staff building opposite the palace is a masterpiece by Rossi built between 1819 and 1829. The triumphal arch, with its chariot of Glory celebrating the victory over Napoleon's troops, cuts the building in its centre. In the centre, the Alexander Column, erected in 1830, is the largest of its kind in the world.

Un lieu unique, étonnant par sa beauté, sa portée et sa majesté. La vue sur la place et le palais d'Hiver, qui s'ouvre immédiatement à partir de l'Arc de l'état-major général, est à couper le souffle. Des soirées chaudes sur la place rassemblent des musiciens et chantent des chants spirituels.
