Peter-and-Paul Fortress was built in 1704 to defend the city from naval attacks, however it never served its primary purpose.

The tombs of the Romanov family are also in its Cathedral.

The stunning Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood was built on the spot where Emperor Alexander II was assassinated in March 1881.
