Замок принца Ольденбургского

An architectural structure of the Art Nouveau era. The object is under restoration by the Tyumen University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (there is a large poster in the photo: what is where and who is the sponsor). The upper part of the palace is privately owned and fully functional. The lower one was not restored at the time of the visit. For a moment: the photos were taken 4 years ago. And most importantly: appreciate the views! As far as I've heard, a hotel will be opened in this facility (I don't know how true that is).
A local leftist smart guy put a trapezoidal sheet at the entrance and charges a fee for visiting 150 rubles and immediately honestly says that no one should be here. To the question "where is the receipt for the ticket and the ticket itself?" returns 50₽ with the words "this is the receipt".. Well, okay, the local loafers are very smart.
The architecture itself impressed me. I've studied art history of all times and peoples, and Art Nouveau is one of my favorite eras. And what I found out for myself after visiting the facility: from the pages of Modern books, the style is quite spacious, in the sense that the rooms are large, almost like in the classics. But here, everything is so compact! It's straight in Russian! The palace in Rostov—on-Don is also distinguished by its smallness - this is a purely Russian trait.
And of course, this attitude towards historical samples is upsetting, although thanks to this, I visited the palace.🙄

⚜️Oldenburgsky 👨, Thank you very much for this 🪟
I knew that I would NOT leave until I took such a photo. The more publications I came across that the entrance was closed and I could not get inside, the more I needed it.
Three hours of searching for a passage, entering the third circle through the mountains and plainsThe stage of acceptance that we will have to look for again tomorrow. And voila. A man sitting on the parapet 👨 suggested how to get into the castle 🏰
I was the happiest at that moment. 🥰
The main thing is to be at the right time, in the right place and with the right people. Be sure to try and everything will work out 💪

Everything was beautiful!!! But in 2024, the territory with the castle was bought out, and it's impossible to get in anymore, they cut off all the wisteria, it's a pity. It was a beautiful place!!! It was 04/20/25

The view from the castle to the sea and the city is magical, the castle itself, of course, is very destroyed, well, there is something to see and imagine how beautiful it was once.

We couldn't go through and see the ruins of the palace - everything is blocked and closed. But we went up from the side of the railway stop along a thin path and saw very beautiful views, a little debris of the palace and the progress of restoration.
Many who went up - then walked back along the same path.
We decided to follow the road to the end. And we saw the coolest views of the city, the sea. We reached an abandoned funicular station, a beautiful staircase covered with ivy, and some other abandoned old buildings. In short, don't be lazy and go ahead🌿🫶🏼

It's beautiful, we love abandonment with children, and also with such a gorgeous view. A very unusual fireplace, balconies, a wall of rock.
The biggest disadvantage is that they take money for admission, without tickets, documents, it feels like just a couple unofficially takes money.( 150 rubles / person doesn't seem to be much, but at least some kind of check, to understand that then it will go to restoration )

Except that it's a beautiful view, but in general you can't approach this castle, everything is closed and it's not clear when it will be opened. We thought maybe there would be some kind of security, give us a paw to get through, but everything is deaf, except to take a picture next to it. So in general there are two passages. The first one didn't even take a picture, just a blue healthy fence like on construction sites, and the second one is higher, to which the steps lead to a lattice door. That was the end of the whole "visit" to the castle.

It looks good from a distance, but the territory is closed, repairs are underway and you can't get there. They write that the territory is private. I wish there were some warnings at the beginning of the climb that it is closed and not to get in, and not after you climb up and see a sign on the closed gate. After all, everywhere they write about it and talk about it as a landmark, it is not surprising that there is a desire to visit.

Very interesting architecture in a gorgeous place. At the moment it is under restoration, the free entrance is closed.
I hope to see this castle in the foreseeable future after all the work is completed, even if the entrance is paid. Although it is unclear why the pearl of Gagra has not been restored yet, it is a shame!!!

The views are amazing. The one who built understood the taste of life)) On one side of the building there are beautiful views of the sea, on the other - a very close location to the mountain - in hot weather there is a place to hide (shade, cool breeze). In general, there were 48 rooms to choose from)) Great scenery from the balconies overlooking the sea.

Take the camera. For 150 rubles, you can arrange a great photo shoot. A place for those who love abandoned buildings and beautiful views.
Part of the castle is in a state of reconstruction. The tower is almost restored, the roof is covered in many places. The main part of the castle is abandoned and has not been inspected. I can understand that it is difficult to make repairs everywhere at once, but they are able to remove the garbage, but, unfortunately, no one cares about this.

The place may be beautiful, but we couldn't get there. We rested at the end of August, walked around it, everything is closed everywhere "private territory", "There is no passage". ... garbage is lying around the edges of the paths everywhere. They looked at it from the side and left.... and so I wanted to get inside and see.

It was not possible to get in. The castle is hidden behind a green metal gate with a padlock. There is no sign or signs. According to the locals, there is a guard there and, depending on his mood, he may or may not be allowed in. In our case, it was not in place and the lock was hanging from the outside. It's a pity this attitude

As a cultural attraction with its own unique history, I recommend it. However, among the disadvantages: problems with cleanliness and tickets. They came with their family twice, none of the guards were there, they could not get inside.

We were at the castle two years ago. They paid 50 rubles each.
Of course, it would be nice to restore this castle and make it a museum. But, it is clear that there are no funds for this.
There is also a beautiful view of the sea from above.
And in spring, they said, the walls were hung with flowering wisteria.

I was in Gagra and saw this palace from afar, but the story was told about him how this prince lived, what he did for Russia, for which he was sent there, built a lot, rich people used to be able to do for people and the park in gagra is still worth it

It's a great place. The view is amazing. Of course, if you look for only the bad in everything, then you can say that this is not a well-groomed abandonment, but personally I can imagine how it was without modern restoration. The only point is, if you are walking with children, keep an eye on them with both eyes. There are no warnings, no warning signs. And so the place is very beautiful. It is impossible to enter the hunting lodge, but it is perfectly visible from the 3rd floor

The building looks very beautiful from afar, but you can't get there now. Locks and gates everywhere are probably being restored. Let's hope that after that it will be possible for tourists to visit such an atmospheric place!

I do not know how people get there.. Maybe in some paid mass excursions... We came on our own, everything is closed, there are locks on the gates everywhere.. Dogs... Therefore, they simply could not get inside.. Again, if there are any days off, we need available information.. We just lost time, fortunately we were just driving by on our own

A beautiful abandoned building. In the second part, repairs began to be made and the roof is already visible. But of course it is still very far from perfect condition. 150p entrance. Be careful with children-there are no fences and holes in the floor everywhere, free access to the roof without fences

A must-visit, excellent historical place of the city of Gagra. Do not take tours here, go yourself, although everyone seems to be hiding this place, and those who sell tours will never tell you the location of this place. It is located at the very beginning of the old Gagra from the side of Tsantripsh, at an altitude of 50 meters near an abandoned multi-tiered abandoned car park. Peace and kindness to all!

It was two years ago.During this time, the palace was severely destroyed. Five more years and that's it. So if possible, visit.The views are amazing! You can pass, now the entrance is 150 rubles. Ask the taxi driver to stop at the path to the palace.

It is impossible to get in without a guide. If you follow the maps, you come to a dead end. There is no other information about the entrance.

Who put a mentally deranged person to guard such a place. Which also charges 300 rubles for the passage. And he chooses who he will hold and who will not. Such a place and such a shame!!! And someone benefits..

Let's go to this castle on our own. The entrance cost, if I remember correctly, 300 rubles.
This is a very beautiful, atmospheric, atmospheric old building. It can be bypassed in about 40 minutes completely and without haste. There will be very beautiful photos. And from the castle there are simply stunning views of Gagra and the mountains. I think that the castle will not leave connoisseurs of abandoned historical buildings indifferent.

The palace is in a decadent state. But the city administration is trying and some restoration work is already beginning. Over time, when the castle is restored, it will be something amazing. Even now, in a dilapidated state, it breathes history and wealth. The place and the view where the castle is located is extraordinary.

Well, it's a very atmospheric place!
The view is breathtaking and great photos can be taken.
But, they did not find it the first time, and like everywhere else in Abkhazia, it is very authentic and there is a lot of garbage.

The road to the castle begins with an uphill climb, but the path is not difficult. First along the path, then up the steps.
The castle itself is closed to the public for obvious reasons - an emergency condition.
At the time of our visit, investors arrived there and allowed us to walk around the castle for "5 minutes" without any payment. At the entrance there is a poster depicting the castle in the future, after restoration. The balcony offers a gorgeous view of the mountains, the seaside park and the endless sea. The stairs look strong enough and you can safely climb to the top. It is noticeable that restoration work is being carried out in full.

My favorite place in Abkhazia🥰
If you like ruins, you are welcome here. The views from the castle are the most magnificent💯
I was there twice during my vacation: in cloudy and sunny weather. I liked it more on cloudy days. The photos are more colorful.
I want to go back there again, do a professional photo shoot in a beautiful dress.
Admission costs 150rubles/person.

We went in as a family, I really wanted to see what and how it was inside in general. In general, the guys at the entrance, the entrance is 150 rubles.per person, they do not charge children at all, even from the eldest 14 years old they did not take payment, and they said take ice cream for children with this money, honestly, respect to the guys, well done. Well, inside, in general, we didn't find anything like that, we took pictures here and there, in the fireplace and against the background of the sea, in general, for show that we had to go)))

We recommend you to visit, only wear comfortable shoes, there are men at the entrance who take as much as they want from everyone))) on average, 100-200 rubles, children were not charged, large companies get a discount. Everything is very unreliable... be careful. Especially on the tower. And there are very beautiful photos, I just want to return and take a photo in the window.

Something incomprehensible.
Now it is a private territory and according to the security guards, the hotel will be completed.
It's interesting to take a walk there in the evening in the semi-darkness, as in any abandoned place.
Clean, surprisingly, But there are dangerous places
