Engineers' Castle — Courtyard

In the very heart of Saint Petersburg, at 2 Sadovaya Street, stands Engineer Castle — the former residence of Emperor Paul I. Its inner courtyard, octagonal in shape, is a space where history meets a modern event format. The atmosphere here is special: the strict geometry of the walls, the breath of the era, and the feeling that you are in the center of the city, yet away from the hustle and bustle.

The courtyard accommodates up to 700 guests. This is an open-air venue where you can organize both a banquet and a buffet, a ceremony or a stage. Equipment and cuisine are selected for a specific event — details are clarified with the organizers, but the courtyard's geometry itself allows zoning the space for any tasks: from intimate receptions to large-scale celebrations.

For corporate events, this place is convenient due to its location: the city center, near major highways, which simplifies logistics for guests. The octagonal courtyard provides scope for creative scenarios — here you can hold a company anniversary, a presentation, a New Year's ball or a gala dinner. The venue works equally well as a standalone space and as part of a route through the castle's historical halls.
