It was founded in 1810 and opened on 19 October 1811, in the wing of the Catherine Palace built by architect V. P. Stasov. The lyceum enrolled boys from the nobility aged 10 to 12. Initially under the control of the Ministry of Public Education, it was placed under the Military Department in 1822 and the Department of Establishments of Empress Maria in 1843. It was transferred to St. Petersburg on 1 January 1844, to be situated in the former Alexandrinsky Orphan's Home at 21 Kamennoostrovsky Avenue built by architect L. I. Charlemagne in 1832-34. The education consisted of six years, junior classes receiving high school education and senior classes receiving university education. The lyceum had a Noble Boarding School attached to it in 1814-29 and a preparatory class from 1882. Among the teachers were V. F. Malinovsky, E. A. Engelgardt, A. P. Kunitsyn, N. F. Koshansky, and A. I. Galich. The curriculum mainly comprised of the humanities, especially law, also focusing on physical training, music, and drawing. Military education gave lyceum graduates the same rights as graduates of the Page Corps. The first class graduated in 1817, which included among its graduates Alexander Pushkin, A. M. Gorchakov, K. K. Danzas, A. A. Delwig, M. A. Korf, V. K. Kuchelbecker, F. F. Matyushkin, and I. I. Pushchin. It had 74 classes of graduates in 107 years totalling about two thousand people, among them prominent statesmen, public figures, scientists, and writers, including M. V. Petrashevsky, K. S. Veselovsky, A. V. Golovin, N. Y. Danilevsky, K. K. Grot, Y. K. Grot, A. B. Lobanov-Rostovsky, L. A. Mey, M. K. Reitern, M. E. Saltykov-Shchedrin, D. A. Tolstoy, M. L. Yakovlev, et al. The lyceum opened the Pushkin Museum in the 1840s, and the Pushkin Library was opened in 1879, and Pushkin Lyceum Society founded in 1899, as well as a Lyceum Library made up of works written by its pupils. It was closed in 1917 by decree of the Provisional Government, and a group of lyceum graduates were condemned for a trumped-up case in 1925 (see Lyceum Graduates' Case). The lyceum building now accommodates the Alexandrovsky Vocational Lyceum, which provides elementary and secondary vocational education. Reference: Егоров А. Д. Императорский Александровский (бывш.

A. Engelgardt and the Lyceum pastor Gnichtel. In 1817-1818 a wooden building was adapted for using as the church on money granted by Alexander I. At first public religious services were conducted by the Lyceum pastor in German and Latin languages. In the church plot there was a primary school which was maintained on the parish’s money. On 14 August 1860 the new building was laid in the place of the old one. Design, approved by the Emperor, was developed by A.F. Vidov on the base of the model project of the Lutheran church of K.A. Thorn. In 1864 Alexander II made the donation of 7,000 Rb for finishing the building and on his birthday on 17 April 1938 the church was consecrated. At the Soviet time public services were stopped here in 1938 and the building was used as a vehicle repair workshop. In 1977 on the initiative of the Finnish Evangelical community the restoration repair of facades was made under the direction of M.I. Tolstov. In the same year the church was anew consecrated in the name of the Resurrection of Christ and services were begun in Finnish and Russian.

Chevakinsky in the complex of four cavaliers’ houses for a linen-keeper of Empress Elizabeth Petrovna. In 1811-1816 V.P. Stasov rebuilt it and built a wing on the plot (3 Pevchesky Lane). The façade was partly rebuilt by V.P. Stasov in Classicism style and it differed from other houses with rich decoration. The peak under the main entrance was decorated with the forged emblem of the Lyceum ,a lyre circled by symbols of wisdom (an owl), force (branches of an oak) and glory (a branch of a laurel). V.F. Malinovsky, the first director of the Lyceum, lived in this house, later Ye.A. Engelgardt, a director of the Lyceum, lived here too. Pupils of the Lyceum often visited this house. After 1843 the house was occupied by chief-Masters of the Horse, then a department of the court office was placed here.
