Memorial Museum-Apartment of A.S. Pushkin

The only memorial apartment in St. Petersburg dedicated to the last, most dramatic period of the poet’s life. The museum is located in the former mansion of the Volkonsky princes - "on the Moika near the Stable Bridge." In the first floor of this house, in an apartment of eleven rooms, Pushkin and his family settled in September 1836. Here, four months later, on January 29 (February 10 according to the new style), 1837, the poet died, mortally wounded by J. Dantes in a duel.
