Parade-ground

Parade-ground was arranged instead of meadow with florets and dandelions in 1796, when Paul I was the owner of the place. It was intended for walks by ceremonial step in a column of six (or seven). It's capacity is 2-4 infantry regiments with staffs and artillery. Nowadays it is empty, flat and graveled.
