Where to stay in Ozerki
How the choice of base plays out on the ground.

About Ozerki
What are the main landmarks in Ozerki?
Ozerki keeps the look of a lakeside dacha suburb. The Trinity church in Ozerki rises among wooden villas, while the Ozerki railway platform building marks the old station stop and the Saint Panteleimon Church stands within the mental hospital complex on Fermskoe shosse. Dachas define the streets.
The Andreev Dacha, Gustav Lessner's dacha and the Matvey Bashkirov Company houses survive from the summer-house era, alongside the Gymnasium in Ozerki and the Former Bergman gymnasium.
What is the history of Ozerki?
Ozerki grew as a dacha suburb around the small lakes beyond old Saint Petersburg. Summer families raised wooden villas here, and the railway stop at the Ozerki railway platform building carried them out from the city each season. Institutions followed the villas.
The Trinity church in Ozerki served the parish, the Gymnasium in Ozerki and the Former Bergman gymnasium taught its children, and a mental hospital complex rose along Fermskoe shosse with its own Saint Panteleimon Church. Villas still stand.
