description The article deals with the perception by the British ambassadors of the son of Empress Catherine II – Grand Duke Pavel Petrovich. In historical literature, this issue has not previously been the subject of special research. The author emphasizes that the future heir to the Russian throne was far from idle interest for the ruling circles of Great Britain, and therefore the ambassadors carefully watched his behavior, as well as the people around him, especially those who could influence him. Diplomats paid special attention to the character, education, personal life of the Grand Duke, and his relationship with the Empress. Although the opinions of the ambassadors were not always objective, they greatly complement and expand the views of our contemporaries about Emperor Paul I when he was Grand Duke.
