Did Nicholas II ever used this palace?

Very unlikely. In 1898 the palace was handed over to the Ministry of the Interior and became the Tver governor's residence. One of the palace's wings was used for a public museum.

I wonder if Nicholas II ever visited Tver - located on the main rail line from Petersburg to Moscow - for more than a few hours before 1915. During his 1915 inspection visit, he stayed in his train as was customary for such trips.
