Fine work on this earth and the geniuses of architecture. Hundreds of structures on the territory of Crimea think are examples of the style. To the best of them is the Palace of Dulber. Photo of the castle can be seen in the material.
The Crimean land has attracted different peoples thousands of years ago. Short and mild winters, long summers, rich world of flora and fauna - all this allow tribes to live in this area easily and happily. There was just fishing, farming and hunting. In parallel, iron ore was mined, so the inhabitants of the Peninsula developed metallurgy and Handicrafts.
Contributed to the flow of resettlement of different peoples in the Crimea and favorable geographical position. The land is bordered by two seas, so the Peninsula got in the way of the water transit routes. The mixture of cultures and traditions subsequently reflected in the architecture. Dulber Palace, swallow's nest, the ruins of Chersonese - all this and many other attractions today are the pride of the Crimea.
A Tasty morsel of dry land became home to various groups of peoples. Here found shelter the Tauri, Cimmerians and Scythians. In the VI century BC the territory occupied by the Greeks. When they lost their independence, in their place came the Romans. Of course, mastered the land and the neighbors-the Slavs. Later the Peninsula was the Turks and Tatars. In General, about thirty nationalities created the history of the Crimea.
One of the attractions of architecture, the Palace Dulber. Its history began in 1895. And more than a hundred years before the events in the Peninsula wove political intrigue of the Russian state and the Ottoman Empire. During the war, the land went to Catherine II. During the reign of the Queen of this coastal region turned into an amazing resort.
A representative of a noble family considered it an honor to get here estate. Therefore, on the territory of Crimea for each other appeared luxurious summer mansions for the nobles. The rich spared no expense to fulfil his dreams. For works invited the most talented architects.
The customer of the Palace became a representative of the Prince of the Romanov family, Peter Nikolaevich, who was a grandson of Emperor Nicholas I.
Born an aristocrat in 1864. In childhood he received a military education. But heroism and extreme courage guy did not stand out. A career in the army began, because it was one of the traditions in the family. It was highly developed creativity. He was interested in painting, architecture. Later, the talent of the architect is reflected in the project that we today call the Palace of Dulber. Aristocrat parallel collecting documents and manuscripts, as well as breeding dogs. The latest craze sometimes makes a profit. The man married and raised three children.
Everyone who knew Peter N., described it as silent, kind, calm and very humble person. Others noted that the Prince had no business acumen and was unable to properly allocate its budget.
In the service he held the position of engineer. His military inventions have repeatedly saved the lives of soldiers. During operation, contracted tuberculosis. And he, like all patients with this illness, prescribed a warm climate. The man was treated on the Mediterranean, where it is deeply struck by the magnificent Oriental architecture.
The Whole life of Peter Nikolaevich was drawn to art. One of his brilliant creations was the Palace of Dulber. It should be noted that the ensemble was built according to the sketch of Prince. It was inspired by a project travel to the Middle East and Africa.
The Style selected by the owner, called Moorish. It was fashionable throughout Europe in the years 1850-1950. This direction consisted of Spanish, Portuguese, Islamic motifs that prevailed in the Middle ages.
The Work Duke commissioned Nikolai Petrovich Krasnov. This man studied in Moscow, lived rather poorly. And since 1887 for success in the job he was appointed chief architect of Yalta.

It Should be noted that the Prince told abouta young architect and his friends. A gentleman decided to heed the advice, because the architect has already worked for several years in the Crimea and during this time studied all the peculiarities of local relief.
During the construction of the Prince family lived nearby, on the sea coast. But to control the process independently didn't let him in poor health. Peter felt so bad that he even refused to get out of bed.
But not only the disease of the customer has become a problem for the architect. When they started to calculate the financial capacity of the family, then realized with horror that the Royal Scion is almost bankrupt. The money is barely enough for living. And, of course, pay the workers had nothing. Some time friends recommended the Prince to sell the object. If the gentleman then gave up, it might be, today, no one asked how to get into the Palace Dulber. But Peter in turn decided to auction other ancestral lands and thus pay off debt.

Reviews of tourists on the square is positive. Even experts note that the gardeners managed to keep the original appearance. The ensemble stretches from the entrance gate to the sea.
During the revolution in the Palace gathered all the Romanovs, which during the war was on the Peninsula. Long strong walls protected them from political repression. Those who were outside of the castle, came under the wrath of the Soviet authorities and were killed. After waiting a riot, soon, the aristocrats of the ship went to Europe, where she lived the majority of their close relatives. There they were given refuge.
Historians have noted that if not for the Dulber Palace, then perhaps today would not remain a single descendant of the Romanovs.
