Lonely Planet review for Dostoevsky House-Museum

While this renowned Russian author is more closely associated with St Petersburg, Fyodor Dostoevsky was actually born in Moscow, and his family lived in a tiny apartment on the grounds of Marinsky Hospital. He lived here until the age of 16, when he went to St Petersburg to enter a military academy. The family’s Moscow flat has been re-created according to descriptions written by Fyodor’s brother. Visitors can see the family’s library, toys and many other personal items, including Fyodor’s quill pen and an original autograph.
