About Sampsonievskiy
Where to stay in Sampsonievskiy
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Sampsonievskiy offers almost no lodging. This is a working residential quarter of Vyborgsky District, so most visitors take beds in central Saint Petersburg and travel out to see the Bateninsky Residential Complex and the Houses for Textile Workers. The Lanskaya station house survives here.
Anyone drawn to the Vyborgsky Residential Complex for workers and the Park of Saint Petersburg State Forestry Academy will find Sampsonievskiy better suited to a day's walk than a night.
About Sampsonievskiy
What are the main landmarks in Sampsonievskiy?
The Forestry Academy dominates. Its main building and hospital stand near the academy baths and the water tower, with a garden vase set among the trees of the Park of Saint Petersburg State Forestry Academy. Industry left separate marks: the Vyborgskaya cotton-spinning manufactory and the Russian Renault assembly shop.
The Orlovo-Novosiltsevskoe charitable institution keeps its fence. Dacha Golovina, the Lanskie Estate and Polyclinic №14 round out a list taking in the Campus of Saint Petersburg Polytechnical University.
What is the history of Sampsonievskiy?
The okrug itself dates only to 1998. Its ground carries much older things: the Lanskie Estate, Dacha Golovina, and the Orlovo-Novosiltsevskoe charitable institution with the fence that still encloses its grounds. Then came the mills.
The Vyborgskaya cotton-spinning manufactory and the Russian Renault assembly shop brought industry, and the Bateninsky Residential Complex and the Houses for Textile Workers stand as the housing raised beside it. Teaching took the same streets, through the Saint Petersburg State Forest Technical University and the Saint Petersburg Pediatric Academy buildings.
Where is Sampsonievskiy?
Sampsonievskiy takes in roughly 4.9 square kilometres of the southern part of Vyborgsky District, inside the federal city of Saint Petersburg.
