“Great Russian poet Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov served here in the Life Guard Hussar Regiment in 1834-1837 and 1838-1840.”
Almost all men of the ancient house of the Lermontovs were military men. Following the tradition M. Lermontov entered the School of Guard Warrant Officers and Cavalry Pupils in 1832. Two years later Cornet Lermontov arrived to the Life Guard Hussar Regiment in Tsarskoye Selo to continue his service. The plate in commemoration of great poet Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov, a brave officer and the true patriot was mounted on one of the buildings of the Leningrad Higher Naval Engineering Academy (a former barrack of the Life Guard Hussar Regiment) on July 27, 1991. It was funded by officers and cadets of the Academy.
