🖼 Nekrasov Apartment Museum

Литейный пр., 36

The poet's apartment with his study and reception room, where the magazine's authors gathered and his desk still stands.

Nekrasov lived in this apartment for twenty years — from 1857 until his death in 1877.
Throughout those years the editorial offices of Sovremennik, founded by Pushkin, and Otechestvennye Zapiski were also based here.
The museum opened in 1946 by decree of the USSR Council of Ministers.
The building belonged to the publisher Andrei Kraevsky; his former apartment is also part of the exhibition.
Locals nicknamed the house "Five Nikolais" after the memorial plaques to Nekrasov, Chernyshevsky, Dobrolyubov, Pirogov and Figner.
