This unique guidebook to all the streets of Kolomna is the result of the author's years of research and collection of printed and archival materials. It recreates a picturesque picture of the former outskirts of St. Petersburg, a Venetian corner between the Neva, Fontanka, and Kryukov Canal. The streets of old Kolomna, where the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Imperial Philanthropic Society, the Hospital of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, and the Naval Cathedral of St. Nicholas the Epiphany were located, have undergone numerous name changes and witnessed many transformations.

This mysterious district of squares, bell towers, and canals gradually transformed into a cultural and industrial center. Its history is intricately intertwined with the biographies of famous poets, writers, historical figures, artists and composers, architects, and actors of various eras, whose names constitute the golden fund of Russian culture. This publication is addressed to anyone who loves St. Petersburg and is interested in its history.
