Villa Sellgren, Historical villa on Lodochnyy Island, Vyborg, Russia

Villa Sellgren is a residential building on Lodochnyy Island in the Gulf of Finland, surrounded by pine forest and close to the shore. The white facade shows elements of Nordic construction with wooden cladding and a stone base.

Finnish architect Uno Ullberg designed the building in 1913 as a summer residence for Evert Viktor Sellgren on the Baltic Sea. Usage changed after the Second World War when the region came under Soviet administration.

The building served as a filming location for a Russian television adaptation in 1986 based on Sherlock Holmes stories. Visitors today recognize rooms and settings that appeared on screen during production.

The estate sits on a forested island reachable by a connecting road. Visitors should note that the property has passed into private hands and access may be restricted.

Opposition research groups revealed connections between this estate and high-ranking government officials through ownership documents. This information appeared in public reports about property holdings.
