Devyatkino, Railway and metro terminus in Murino, Russia.
Devyatkino is a combined metro and railway terminus operating at ground level in the Vsevolozhsky district of Leningrad Oblast. The facility features nine platform tracks and connects Saint Petersburg Metro service with regional trains heading to surrounding areas.
The railway facility began operations in 1917 on the Saint Petersburg-Hiitola line as the region developed its transport infrastructure. The metro component opened later on December 29, 1978, creating a new link to Saint Petersburg's urban network.
The station's name reflects the shift away from Soviet-era references toward contemporary local identity. Today it functions as a meeting point where commuters from the city interchange with those traveling to surrounding areas.
The station sits at the edge of Saint Petersburg and serves passengers traveling in different directions. Visitors should know that connections run both ways depending on whether they are heading into the city or toward regional destinations.
This is the only metro station in the entire Saint Petersburg system located beyond the city limits. Its position at this threshold makes it a distinctive point between urban and regional territories.
