Tauride Palace - Parade Courtyard Cast-Iron Fence Restoration

Repair and restoration design for the Parade Courtyard cast-iron fence of the federal cultural heritage site "Tauride Palace", Saint Petersburg. The fence (1793–1794, architect F.I. Volkov), together with granite elements and guardhouses, forms a representative frontage along Shpalernaya Street. The project is based on comprehensive research materials, on-site surveys and measurements, photo documentation, and the study of archival sources. The scope includes granite plinths and pedestals, profiled stone details, guardhouses and their metal coverings, as well as fence ironwork, gates, hardware, and cast vases with mascarons. Key tasks are addressing the effects of multi-layer paint and corrosion, restoring missing parts, and ensuring correct junctions between metal and stone. Design: 2020.
