The Egyptian Gate of Tsarskoye Selo was built in 1829 to replace the old toll bar, which had been made redundant by the expansion of Tsarskoe Selo. The gate, which exemplifies the Egyptian Revival style, was designed by Adam Menelaws, who was inspired by the Temple of Khonsu gates. The hieroglyphs were modeled by the professor Demut-Malinovsky. The iron gate and the cast iron columns and plates, covered with hieroglyphs, were cast in St. Petersburg at the Alexander Iron Works. The Alexander Park extended to this gate until 1895, when part of it was used for the building of barracks. The large scale pylonesque is made of brick on one side and cast iron reliefs on the other. The drawings on the gates are carved and polished. The style seen in the Egyptian Gates was very typical of that time. Due to the French expeditions in Egypt, the world became more interested in ancient Egyptian architecture. The hieroglyphs on the gate were included in part to show that the Russians were interested in supporting the scholars that were researching the language.

St. John the Baptist Church (Russian: Церковь Иоанна Крестителя) is a Catholic church located in Pushkin, administratively part of the federal city of Saint Petersburg, Russia. It is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Moscow, in its northwestern deanery. The first Catholic church in the imperial residence at Tsarskoye Selo was built in 1811, on the property of the master of ceremonies of the court (Ceremoniemeister), Commander Mezonyaev; but the church was not sufficient for the needs of the community. Emperor Alexander I authorized the construction of a new church on land he donated for the purpose. It was built in the neoclassical style between 1823 and 1825 by Leone and Domenico Adamini, with the assistance of Vasily Stasov. The foundation stone was blessed on 6 July [O.S. 24 June] 1825, the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist, in the presence of the Minister of Education. The church was consecrated by the Bishop of Minsk, Matvey Lipsky, on 4 December [O.S. 21 November] 1826. The church was closed in April 1938 and became a gym. Those buried in the crypt were reburied in the cemetery of Our Lady of Kazan in Pushkin. The church was damaged during the German occupation of the city during the siege of Leningrad. The first Catholic ceremony was held on 17 March 1991, in the presence of seven Catholic parishioners. The Mass was held the following Sunday. On 1 October 1997, the church was officially returned to the Catholic parish of the city, with an agreement with the directorate of the Tsarskoye Selo State Museum of Fine Arts on the joint use of the building. Today the church is served by two Spanish priests.

The Formula of Sorrow is a monument to Jewish victims of Nazism, killed in 1941 in the city of Puschkin during the World War II. The memorial is located in the park at the intersection of Dvortsovaya and Moskovskaya streets, not far from the Alexander Palace, near which mass executions took place. In total, about 3,600 Jews were killed in the Nazi-occupied Leningrad Oblast, of which about 250-300 were in Pushkin. During the Soviet era, the Holocaust was hushed up by the authorities. It was not until the 1980s that a group of Jewish activists began to investigate the history of the genocide of Jews near Leningrad (Saint Petersburg). On October 13, 1991, on her initiative, a monument to Jewish victims of Nazism was opened. The central part of the memorial was a sculpture by the cult underground Soviet artist Vadim Sidur "The Formula of Sorrow". The architectural design of the monument was created by Boris Bader. The memorial slab, made as a projection of the Star of David, contains a quotation from the Psalms in Hebrew and Russian, as well as an inscription dedicated to the murdered Jews.

The Alexander Palace (Russian: Александровский дворец, Alexandrovskiy dvorets) is a former imperial residence near the town of Tsarskoye Selo in Russia, on a plateau about 30 miles (48 km) south of Saint Petersburg. The Palace was commissioned by Empress/Tsarina Catherine II (Catherine the Great) in 1792. Due to the privacy it offered when officially resident in St Petersburg, the Alexander Palace was the preferred residence of the last Russian Emperor, Nicholas II and his family; its safety and seclusion compared favourably to the Winter Palace during the years immediately prior to the Russian Revolution. It was the birthplace of Nicholas II's eldest child Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna of Russia, while the rest of his children were born in the Peterhof Palace. In 1917, the palace became the family's initial place of imprisonment after the first of two Russian Revolutions in February which overthrew the House of Romanov during World War I. The Alexander Palace is situated in Alexander Park, not far from Catherine Park and the larger, more elaborate Catherine Palace. After undergoing years of renovation, the Alexander Palace opened in Summer 2021 as a state museum housing relics of the former imperial dynasty.
