Shlisselburgskoye Highway

Ust-Izhora, Shlisselburgskoye Highway

Shlisselburgskoye Highway in Ust-Izhora is a historic section of the road that, until the early 19th century, served as part of the route for carters and for stopping wagons. During the Soviet era, it was called Ninth of January Avenue, but its historical name was restored in 2002. The main value of this place is the preserved cobblestone pavement, thanks to which in 2019 the section between houses 169 and 251 was proposed to be recognized as a landmark. Here you can also find a residential house from the 1830s, the pedestrian Menshikov Bridge over the Izhora River, the Alexander Nevsky Church, and a diorama museum.
