After electricity came to the city in 1873, the first electric lighting devices began to be produced on Odesskaya Street. Since then, this street is considered a link between the past and the future, a kind of symbol of the development of science. After all, it was here that the first flashlight in St. Petersburg was lit.

The statue of the lamplighter, erected here in 1998, brings good luck. To attract wealth and well-being to your home, you need to rub the boots of a bronze worker. The main thing is to clearly formulate your wish, because it will come true exactly as you thought it for the first time.
