===Lore=== The legend of Peter is still talked about, especially in the town where he lived most of his life, formerly Oranienbaum, later [[Lomonosov, Russia|Lomonosov]], situated on the southern coast of the [[Gulf of Finland]], 40 km west of St. Petersburg. Peter's palace is the only one of the famous palaces in the St. Petersburg area that was not captured by the Germans during the [[Second World War]]. During the war, the building was a school and people say the ghost of Peter protected the children of Oranienbaum from getting hurt by bombs. Furthermore, it was near this town that the [[siege of Leningrad]] ended in January 1944. People say that Peter, after his death, stopped [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]]'s army near Leningrad, just as the living Peter had ordered the Russian army to stop, just as it was about to capture [[Konigsberg]].<ref name=mylnikov/>{{page needed|date=July 2020}}{{sfn|Palmer|2005}}{{page needed|date=July 2020}} {{wide image|Peter III of Russia's burial.jpg|3600px|Second burial of Peter III, {{circa|1796}}}}
