Feodor Dostoevskii - Crime and Punishment

Crime and Punishment

Saint Petersburg

I decided to follow the trail laid out in my guide book of the places mentioned by Dostoevski in his famous novel. As anyone who has read the novel knows

all the intial action took place in the summer, so this perhaps gives you a feel for the novel.

All of the places are within a short walk of one another and not too far from the Metro station Sadovaya.

The site of the house of the old Lady that Raskonikoff killed.

Sankt-Petersburg Courtyard
