Description
Saint Petersburg's notorious prison complex Kresty, which once housed jailed revolutionaries, toppled ministers and Soviet dissidents, has been sold at auction and will be turned into a hotel, restaurants, museum and art gallery. Politician Leon Trotsky and writer Joseph Brodsky are among the roll call of famous Russians who were imprisoned in the jail complex. IMAGES
