Terem Palace

Currently, the structure is not accessible to the public, as it belongs to the official residence of the President of Russia.

In the 16th century, Aloisio da Milano constructed the first royal palace on the spot.

Only the ground floor from that structure survives, as the first Romanov tsar, Mikhail Feodorovich, had the palace completely rebuilt in 1635–1636.

The third story was occupied by the czarina and her children; the fourth one contained the private apartments of the czar.
