The Horse Cemetery Not far from the southern facade of the Pensioners' Stable, the horses ridden by the Emperor himself and allowed to die of old age have found their eternal resting place. Rows of stone slabs with names engraved on them marked the graves of the favorite horses of the emperors, from Alexander I to Nicholas II . The first graves appeared here in the 1830s and are mostly in the eastern part of the cemetery. The last graves were dug not long before the Revolution in 1917. The cemetery contains more than 100 graves.
Restoration is currently underway here.
