I learned so much about Dostoevsky from coming here! Almost everything is translated to English, and they also have a kind of written guide in English. Much more than I expected! Definitely recommend this to anyone interested in Dostoevsky and/or history!

Nice example of Russian church architecture. Very colorful and vivid, one of the nicest landmarks in Omsk. Located in historical part of the city, it's on walking distance from other landmarks, fortress, Opera house, Lenin street... Easily accessible from other parts of the city by public transport and "marshutka" mini buses
