The museum, located in St. Petersburg at 36 Liteiny Prospekt, is a memorial apartment museum dedicated to the life and work of the great Russian poet and publisher Nikolai Alekseevich Nekrasov. The museum is located in the former house of A.A. Kraevsky.

The museum was founded in 1946 in Leningrad in the last apartment of the poet. Nekrasov lived here for 20 years: from 1857 to 1877 until his death. All this time, the apartment housed the editorial office of 2 progressive magazines of the era: originally Sovremennik, invented and published by AS. Pushkin, then “Notes of the Fatherland.”

In the 1860s-1870s, Nekrasov's apartment was the center of the literary and social life of Russia, a kind of headquarters for revolutionary democracy. M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin, N.G. Chernyshevsky, N.A. Dobrolyubov. Writers and poets came to the editorial office of the Sovremennik magazine; Turgenev, A.N. Ostrovsky, L.N. Tolstoy, I.A. Goncharov.

In our time, the exposition of the Nekrasov Museum-Apartment tells about the poet's life in this house, about his editorial and poetic work, about outstanding public and literary figures - revolutionary democrats who determined the whole era of Russian life. In the halls of the museum, portraits of Nikolai Alekseevich, made by prominent Russian artists K.E. Makovsky and I.N. Kramskoy, photographs of the poet in their original form, as well as photographs and portraits of famous contemporaries of Nekrasov, who visited this apartment.

The Museum carefully preserves the first editions of Nekrasov's works, books he read. The large collection of the poet's personal belongings is of particular interest. The exposition gives an idea of the poet's work; there are rough versions of manuscripts and white-paper autographs of Nekrasov's poems and poems. The manuscripts of the poems "Frost, Red Nose", "Who Lives Well in Russia", lyrical poems are complemented by illustrations that were made by Russian artists during the life of Nikolai Alekseevich. All this collection helps to better imagine and understand the life and creative path of the talented Russian poet.

In 1985, the rooms in which co-editor Nekrasov and his great friend, publicist and writer Ivan Ivanovich Panaev lived were recreated. In Panaev's rooms there is a literary exposition telling about the activities of the Sovremennik editorial board during the abolition of serfdom in 1861, about women writers, employees of magazines. The furnishings of these rooms are recreated according to the type of the living room and office interior of the first half of the 19th century. Here you can see portraits of Panaev, his works are presented in the "Contemporary" magazine, portraits of his wife A.Ya. Panaeva, a memoirist and writer. Also here are portraits of prominent women - employees of magazines N.A. Nekrasov, members of the organization for women's emancipation. There are publications of their literary works in Otechestvennye zapiski and Sovremennik, separate editions.

In the former apartment of A.A. Kraevsky, the owner of this house, a journalist and publicist of the Nekrasov era, is now hosting a literary exhibition "Nekrasov in Soviet Culture."
