Ploshchad Muzhestva (Russian: Пло́щадь Му́жества, Square of Fortitude) is a station of the Saint Petersburg Metro. Opened on 31 December 1975. The station got its name because of its location next to the eponymous square (roundabout).

Ploschad Muzhestva (Russian: Пло́щадь Му́жества [ˈploɕːɪtʲ ˈmuʐɪstvə], transl. Square of Fortitude) is an open public square, shaped as a roundabout, in the north-east of Saint Petersburg, Russia. Its name and decoration commemorate the fortitude city dwellers demonstrated during the nearly 900-day-long 1941–44 Nazi Germany Siege of Leningrad as the square opens the way to the biggest burial place of the siege victims Piskaryovskoye Memorial Cemetery. The underground station of the same name opened next to the square on 31 December 1975. The square joins five streets, two of which form northeastern roughly latitudinal part of the city's Central Arc Thoroughfare that as a whole connects much of the city's uptown residential areas with southwestern and northwestern suburban motorways. Mostly nearly longitudinal Polytechnical Street and its northern coaxials mark the boundary between Vyborg District and Kalinin District of the city.

Akademicheskaya (Russian: Академи́ческая) is a station of the Saint Petersburg Metro. It is part of the Kirovsko-Vyborgskaya line, located between the stations " Polytechnicheskaya" and " Grazhdansky prospect". It opened on 31 December 1975. The station is about 64 metres (210 ft) under the ground. The station's name was determined by the fact that there are a number of research institutes nearby, so a number of streets in this area were named according to the broad principle - glorify science and its figures. From July 30, 2018, to July 1, 2019, the station was closed for overhaul.

Kalininsky District (Russian: Кали́нинский райо́н) is a district of the federal city of St. Petersburg, Russia. As of the 2010 Census, its population was 504,641; up from 469,409 recorded in the 2002 Census.

Bogoslovskoe Cemetery (Russian: Богословское кладбище) is a cemetery in Saint Petersburg, Russia. It is located in the Kalininsky District of the city between Laboratornaya Street and Prospekt Mechnikov. The name comes from the church of John the Apostle, (Russian: Иоанн Богослов, Ioann Bogoslov), which from the early 18th century had a burial ground attached, mostly for those who died in the nearby military hospital. This site was some 2.5 km south of the present cemetery, at what is now the intersection of Arsenalnaya Street and Mineralnaya Streets. The church and cemetery were closed in 1788 and the land sold off into private ownership. In 1841 the city acquired a new plot of land for a cemetery, and named it after the previous one. In 1844, the Most Holy Synod approved the building of a new stone church, but no funds were available. In 1853-1854 a small two-storey chapel was built. In 1915–1916, a new wooden three-fronted church of John the Apostle was built at the cemetery to the design of architect Viktor Bobrov. The church was closed during the Soviet era, and finally looted and demolished in 1938, along with part of the cemetery, as it lay within an area closed off for military purposes. In Soviet times the cemetery became the burial place of many prominent scientists, cultural figures, and military officials. It was also the site of several mass graves of those who died during the siege of Leningrad. These are found in the northern part of the cemetery, marked by a hill topped with a small obelisk. In October 2000, a newly rebuilt wooden church of John the Apostle was consecrated.
