Summer villas became a special phenomenon on the Karelian Isthmus during the 1870s. The coastal stretch of the Isthmus northwest of St. Petersburg developed into a meeting point between two cultures. The area of Terijoki, today Zelenogorsk, became the most famous summer resort. Architecturally these buildings allowed great freedom in design. This study offers also insights to the contemporary questions concerning the future of this shared heritage.
