- Millerhof
-
Millerhof is a folk name of a palace built near Istra Reservoir, Moscow Region, Russia. The palace was constructed in 2008-2009, and resembles a somewhat diminished and simplified copy of the famous palaces of Peterhof. The site also hosts several formal gardens that seem to be however inaccessible for general public.
The owner of the palace is not officially known, however Russian newspapers allege the ownership to Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller[1][2]. Interestingly, in 2009 the site was removed from Google Maps satellite images, even although it was shown there before, which gave a rise to various conspiracy theories[3][4].
