About
Nabokov House is a house in Saint Petersburg with the modern street number of 47 Great Morskaya Street (Bol'shaia morskaia ulitsa), 190000. In 1897, the mansion became the property of the liberal statesman and jurist Vladimir Dmitrievich Nabokov, and as such the house hosted many important political meetings, including the final session of the National Congress of Zemstvos (1904).
It was also in this mansion that novelist Vladimir Nabokov was born in 1899. The first floor of the house contains the Nabokov Museum dedicated to the author's life.
