The Moscow Gate, representing two stone guardhouses with gate folds between them, was constructed in 1830-1831. Facades of the guardhouses was decorated in the Empire style. Ya. V. Zakharzhevsky, a Governor of Tsarskoye Selo, himself received the project, approved by the Emperor on 14 December 1829, from the Emperor. Nicholas I with his own hand marked off by the pencil the place of the gate location on the plan in Sophia Boulevard, at the beginning of Moscow Road. The estimate for building work was calculated by the architect V.M. Gornostayev. The cast iron gate folds, cast on V.A. Glinka’s drawing and installed in 1831, were decorated with imperial eagles with crowns. Figures of eagles and crowns were annihilated after 1917.
