Grand Kremlin Palace
The Grand Kremlin Palace is a 19th-century palace complex within the Moscow Kremlin that served as the Russian emperor's Moscow residence and today functions as the president's official working residence and a museum. The long, rectangular complex encloses an inner courtyard and incorporates older structures such as the Terem Palace and several historic chambers and churches.

As it stood in 1849
The shape it held in its prime.
A long, rectangular three‑storey–appearing palace of pale yellow and white stone with richly framed tall windows and pilasters, crowned by low green metal roofs and a raised central green pavilion topped with gilded ornament and a slim spire. White carved stone platbands and double-arched window treatments run across the façades; the building forms a closed rectangle around an inner courtyard. In views from Sobornaya Square the palace sits behind mature trees, with golden onion domes and a tall white-and-gold bell tower visible behind it.
