In fact , the room was not made to be a gift. It was designed for the palace of Frederick Ⅰ. However, the next King of Prussia , Frederick William Ⅰ, to whom the amber room belonged, decided not to keep it.
Para 2
In 1716 he gave it to Peter the Great. In return , the Czar sent him a troop of his best soldiers. So the Amber Room became part of the Czar's winter palace in St Petersburg. About four metres long, the room served as a small reception hall for important visitors.

◎ Later, Catherine ll had the Amber Room moved to a palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summers.句式剖析:
1.本句是一个含有定语从句的主从复合句,where引导的定语从句修饰先行词a palace.
2.“have +宾语+宾补”,move 与 the Amber Room 之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,用过去分词做宾补。考点提炼:have sth. done (1 ) 使某事被做,相当于 get sth. done
(2)遭遇/ 经历某种不幸的事
归纳拓展: have / let / make sb. do 让某人做... get sb. to do 让某人做.... have sb. doing 容忍 / 让某人做....

In September 1941, the Nazi army was near St Petersburg. This was a time when the two countries were at war. Before the Nazis could get to the summer palace , the Russians were able to remove some furniture and small art objects from the Amber Room.
Para 4
However , some of the Nazis secretly stole the room itself. In less than two days 100,000 pieces were put inside twenty-seven wooden boxs. There is no doubt that the boxs were then put on a train for Konigsberg, which was at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea. After that, what happened to the Amber Room remains a mystery.
