      🖼 Kamchatka Boiler Room

      Санкт-Петербург, ул. Блохина, 15

      The boiler room where Viktor Tsoi worked as a stoker; now a club-museum with his guitar and concerts.

      • Tsoi and Sergey Firsov took jobs here as stokers in autumn 1986, and Tsoi worked until 1988.
      • Alexander Bashlachev and Svyatoslav Zaderiy also worked in the boiler room.
      • In 1987 Alexey Uchitel's film Rock was shot here: Tsoi tosses coal into the furnace and says he feels free.
      • The song "Kamchatka" was written long before he worked in the boiler room — it came out on the album 46 in 1983.
      • Kino guitarist Alexey Rybin wrote a book about the boiler room, "Eto sladkoe slovo — Kamchatka" (That Sweet Word, Kamchatka).
