Construction of the new Catherine Palace began on July 25, 1715. Peter and Catherine visited the unfinished residence on several occasions, but after the Tsar's death in 1725, Catherine no longer showed any interest in the seaside estate. The ballroom, bearing Catherine's monogram and its lavish stucco decoration (attributed to Heinrich von Bergen), survived, while many other parts of the interior were redesigned.
