Литературно-мемориальный музей Ф. М. Достоевского

The Dostoevsky Literary Memorial Museum is a memorial site in Novokuznetsk with four exhibition halls. They display photographs, letters, manuscripts, and personal objects that document his life and literary work.

The writer stayed in this city from 1856 to 1857 and lived in the building that now houses the museum. The street was renamed after him in 1901 to honor his connection to this region.

The exhibition rooms reveal how Dostoevsky lived in this city and what his significance meant for Russian literature. The displayed objects and installations offer a personal sense of his daily life and thoughts during his time here.

The museum is located in a historic residential building and can be visited inside, with rooms arranged in sequence. It is helpful to use an audio guide or join a tour to fully understand the exhibition.

The museum is one of seven Dostoevsky institutions across former Soviet territories and the only one focused on his time in the Kuzbass region. This specific focus makes it a special place for those exploring lesser-known aspects of the writer's life.
