Residence of Peter the Great in Riga (9 Palasta Street), where the emperor stayed eight times.

The present house (built in 1869) stands on the site of the former palace of Peter the Great, which was presented to him in 1711.

Today, of the original building only the foundations remain and the former palace itself has been transformed into luxury apartments. On the wall of the house there is a plaque with the image of Peter the Great by the sculptor Viktor Sushkevich.
