Vyborgsky District, Administrative district in Saint Petersburg, Russia

Vyborgsky District extends across 354 square kilometers in the northern section of Saint Petersburg, bordering five neighboring districts including Primorsky and Kalininsky.

Founded in January 1917, the district received its name from the castle town of Vyborg, which the Imperial Russian Army captured from Sweden during the Great Northern War.

Saint Sampson Cathedral within the district combines traditional Russian architectural elements with European features from the period of Empress Anna.

The district maintains postal codes between 194000 and 194999, containing seven municipal divisions including Sampsonievskoie, Svetlanovskoe, and Sosnovskoe.

Female factory workers in Vyborgsky District initiated the first protests of the February Revolution in 1917, responding to food shortages.
