      • The square was first called Mikhailovskaya — after the palace of Grand Duke Mikhail Pavlovich, built to Rossi's design.
      • In the early 1920s it was Lassalle Square, and it has had its present name since 26 September 1940.
      • The garden was laid out by decree of Nicholas I from 1827: Rossi's layout, planting by the gardener Joseph Bush, "in the English style".
      • The monument to Pushkin by Mikhail Anikushin was installed in the garden in 1957.
      • In 1895 the Mikhailovsky Palace was bought by the treasury and became the Russian Museum of Emperor Alexander III.
