The metro station "Chernyshevskaya" of the Kirovsko-Vyborgskaya line of the St. Petersburg metro received its first passengers in the fall of 1958. It opened on the stretch between Ploshchad Vosstaniya and Ploshchad Lenina stations on the section of the first line of the Leningrad Metro that was already in operation by that time. The stretch, on which the Chernyshevskaya metro station is located, entered the history of domestic metro construction as one of the most complex and deep sections. The difficulties that the metro builders had to overcome here were unprecedented. And engineering and construction experience subsequently proved invaluable for the implementation of other projects.
Metro "Chernyshevskaya" on the city map
The main difficulty in the construction of the stretch in the direction of the right-bank part of the city was the need to overcome the water obstacle. The tunnel under the Neva was built using the caisson method, which ensured the safety of work and the reliability of the engineering structures under construction. The commissioning of the Chernyshevskaya metro station was started only after the main engineering task was solved - the stable functioning of the entiresection under the Neva. All subsequent tunnels of the Leningrad metro, passing under the river bottom, were built using a similar technology. Structurally, the metro station "Chernyshevskaya" is a pylon three-vaulted structure of deep occurrence. Until December 2011, when the Admir alteyskaya station of the Frunzensko-Primorskaya line was put into operation, it remained the deepest station in the city. The central hall of "Chernyshevskaya" is shortened along the center line compared to the standard length. The architectural appearance of the station is distinguished by strict lines and concise forms.
This is due to the fact that it was built in the period known in Soviet history and culture as "The fight against architectural excesses". The interior decoration is dominated by marble and granite in light gray and dark colors. The thematic design concept of the station is the revolutionary struggle of the Russian democrats of the nineteenth century. Accordingly, the name is given by Chernyshevsky Avenue passing nearby. But the thematic content was reduced to a minimum by the struggle against excesses that had begun. Its traces can be seen only in the ornaments of decorative ventilation grilles and in the lobby, decorated with a relief portrait of Chernyshevsky.
Historical St. Petersburg, Chernyshevskaya metro station
It will not be a big exaggeration to say that "Chernyshevskaya" has long been one of the original urbanattractions. This is due to its favorable location among the characteristic St. Petersburg historical quarters. They haven't changed much since the nineteenth century. Native Petersburgers and guests of the northern capital have great sympathy for this area, where cafes, restaurants, cinemas and other cultural and leisure facilities are located in abundance. And the way here traditionally lies through the lobby of the Chernyshevskaya metro station.
