Utkina Dacha
Utkina Dacha

Utkina Dacha (Utkin Dacha) is an 18th-century architectural ensemble in St. Petersburg, near the junction of the Okkervil and the Okhta rivers. It is included in Russian cultural heritage register under number 7810250000. During recent years, it was abandoned. Prior to the founding of Saint Petersburg this land near the Nyenschantz fortress was owned by Swedish colonel Okkervil. Later the chief of the Secret Chancellery general Andrey Ushakov became an owner. In the middle of the 18th century this land was granted to Agafokleya Poltoratskaya and her husband Mark Poltoratsky as an award for their involvement in opera productions. The Manor of Okkervil was managed by their daughter Agafokleya Sukhareva, who also owned the neighboring site upstream the river Okhta. One of their daughters, Elizabeth, became the wife of Alexey Olenin, the future president of the Imperial Academy of Arts. Alexander Pushkin fell in love with another their daughter, Anna Olenina, granddaughter of Poltoratsky. Pushkin asked for her hand in the summer of 1828, but was turned down. There is a speculation that the designer of the manor was the famous architect Nikolay Lvov. In the 1820–1830s a service building was erected. After the 1917 Russian Revolution, the estate passed to the Commissariat of Health, and housed Malookhtinsky office of the 2nd psychiatric hospital. In the late 1930s, parts of the buildings were re-planned for residential apartments, while other premises were used by various institutions.

Okhta
Okhta

The Okhta (Russian: Óхта) is a river in Vsevolozhsky District of Leningrad Oblast and the eastern part of the city of Saint Petersburg, Russia. It is the largest right tributary of the river Neva. It joins the Neva 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) upstream of the Neva's mouth, within the city limits of Saint Petersburg. The length of the Okhta is 90 kilometres (56 mi), and the area of its drainage basin is 768 square kilometres (297 sq mi). Its largest tributary is the Okkervil (left). The Rzhevsky Reservoir (5 kilometres (3.1 mi) long, 120 metres (390 ft) wide, with a volume of 4 mln m³) has been built on the Okhta. The Utkina Dacha estate is located on the banks of the Okhta close to the mouth of the Okkervil. The source of the Okhta is in the swamps in the northwestern part of Vsevolozhsky District, north of the town of Sertolovo. The Okhta flows southeast, downstream of the settlement of Vartemyagi turns east, passes southwest of the urban-type settlement of Toksovo and turns south. Below Toksovo, it essentially flows through the suburbs of Saint Petersburg. Downstream of the town of Murino it enters the city of Saint Petersburg, passes Ladozhsky railway station and has its mouth under the Malookhtinsky Bridge, which separates Malookhtinskaya and Sverdlovskaya Embankments. The drainage basin of the Okhta includes the south of the Karelian Isthmus. The town of Vsevolozhsk and the urban-type settlements of Toksovo and Kuzmolovsky are located in this river basin. Large lakes in the basin of the Okhta include Lake Kavgolovskoye and Lake Khepoyarvi.
