Pushkin House, Literary research institute in Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Pushkin House occupies the former Customs House building, designed by architect Giovanni Francesco Lucchini in neo-Palladian style along the Neva River.
Founded in 1905 as a center for Pushkin studies, the institute obtained a large collection of manuscripts from Alexander Onegin in Paris after his death in 1925.
The institute maintains departments dedicated to Old Russian Literature, Folklore, Pushkin Studies, and Recent Russian Literature, preserving manuscripts dating from the 13th century.
Visitors can access the Museum of Literature section, which displays portraits, documents, and personal belongings of notable Russian authors throughout different periods.
The institute continued operations during the Siege of Leningrad, with staff ensuring the evacuation and preservation of manuscripts under extreme conditions.
