The Upper Bath was built by Ilya Neelov in 1777-1779 and served as a bathhouse for the royal family. The exterior of the pavilion is fairly modest in appearance, but the interior was once very luxurious. Besides the vestibule, changing room, bath and steam rooms, it also contained a beautifully ornamented octagonal hall for rest. The interior decor of the Upper Bath was based on the Golden House of the Emperor Nero which was discovered during excavations in Rome.
    On the foreground you can see a beautiful statue of sea nymph Galatea sitting on a dolphin, made by Italian sculptor Baratta in early 18th century.
    The pavilion was greatly damaged during the Second World War. Today the building has been more or less restored to its original appearance.
