      • The Great Stone Orangery was built by 1763 to a design by Fyodor Argunov and is the largest pavilion on the estate.
      • In the centre of the orangery is a "vauxhall", a round dance hall with a gallery for musicians.
      • The State Museum of Ceramics moved to Kuskovo in 1932.
      • In summer the bitter-orange trees from the orangeries were placed along the main avenue; Karamzin compared it to "a corner of Spain".
