The Mariinskyi Palace is the official residence of the president of Ukraine, located on the right bank of the Dnipro River in Kyiv, Ukraine. It was constructed by command of Russian empress Elizaveta Petrovna in 1744 and completed by Ivan Michurin and other architects in 1752. The palace burned down in a series of fires in the early 19th century and was reconstructed by Emperor Alexander II in 1870. It was used as a residence for visiting members of the Imperial Family until 1917 and was later used as a museum and was badly damaged during World War II. The palace underwent several restorations, with the most recent one beginning in June 2007.learn more on wikipedia
