F.M. Dostoevsky Literary and Memorial Museum (Novokuznetsk)

The Dostoevsky Literary and Memorial Museum in Novokuznetsk is one of the writer’s seven museums in the former USSR. The museum has a unique exposition. Its unusualness lies in a special figurative and plot method of construction, which reflected the “Kuznetsk drama of the writer Dostoevsky” in the threefold aspect: event, creative and philosophical.

The memorial house has four halls: “Road”, “Salon of Mrs. Moskaleva”, “Triangle (“Ego”) and “Wedding”. Passing through them, the visitor will not only learn the history of complex relationships and weddings in Kuznetsk on February 6, 1857 by F.M. Dostoevsky and M.D. Isayeva, but also about the peculiarities of the writer’s work, his philosophical views, about the symbolism of his great works.
