The idea of creation of Park belongs to Peter 1. Solemn opening of Peterhof took place 1723. Translated from the Dutch Peterhof
means Petrov yard.

In the years of the war the Park of Peterhof was captured by German troops. Art treasures were plundered or destroyed, all the parks cut down trees, the Grand Palace was blown up and burned. Statue of Samson, the Magus, the
Neva and many others were removed.
