"Manege" brief historic outline.
The building of the past Horse-Guarding manege where CEH is located now is an outstanding architectural memorial of the beginning of 19 c. It was built in classical style by the famous classical architector J. Kvarengy(1744-1817) for Lifeguard of Konniy(Horse) regiment and it's one of the greatest architector's creation. It was the architector Grish who was Kvarengy's partner during the building Horse-Guarding manege.

There are two sculptures of brothers Dyoskurs in front of "Manege".
The sculptures are the small copies of classical sculptures that are in front of Kvirinalian palace in Rome and they were made of marble by Paolo Triskorny.

In 1973 it was decided to make the building of Horse-Guarding manege to the CEH. Its exterior look was made nearer to Kvarengy's original look.

Around it there are a lot of gorgeous architectural works of K. I. Rossy, A. D. Zakharov, O. Monferran, A. I. Shtakenshneider , J. Kvarengy's reconstructed building enters perfectly to the harmony of Saint Isaac and Senatskaya squares.
