    The main theorem of the paper proves the existence of generalized symmetric Riemannian spaces with solvable full isometry groups of arbitrary order \(n>3\). The previous results gave only the series of such spaces of even order [see \textit{M. Božek}, Cas. Pěstovani Mat. 105, 368-384 (1980; Zbl 0475.53045)]. The main theorem is based on the investigation of certain Riemannian metrics on complex unipotent algebraic groups of Chevalley type. In particular, it is proved that any complex unipotent algebraic group U of Chevalley type possesses a left- invariant Riemannian metric \(g_ U\) such that \((U,g_ U)\) is a generalized Riemannian symmetric space with solvable full isometry group \(I_ 0(U,g_ U)\). The main theorem is a specialization of the latter result.
