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.[1]
