Centuries-old history
Several thousand years ago, in the place where the Neva is located - a river that has witnessed many historical moments in the fate of Russia, the Tosna River used to flow. After the Ladoga reservoir was transformed into a closed lake, its waters rose, thereby exceeding the permissible level, and flooded the entire valley of the Mga River. On this very territory, the Ivanovskie rapids were formed. Thus, a valley arose, where the Neva now flows. The Tosna River was later transformed into its tributaries.
The development of the lands of this waterway and the settlement of them by people began in ancient times of the melting of glaciers.
In the ninth century, the Neva was called the Vodskaya pyatina and belonged to Veliky Novgorod. She divided those lands into two banks, which had different names, the right one was the Karelian territory, and the left one was the Izhora one.
It is believed that the river received the name "Neva" from the Swedes in the thirteenth century, when battles between the militia took place in these places. Nizhny Novgorod and Swedish troops. The first mention of the river as "Neva" was found in a book describing the life of Alexander Nevsky.
In the eighteenth century, when the Neva returned back to the Russian Empire, the ceremonial construction of St. Petersburg began, which later became the capital. But bridges were not built at that time, since Peter I considered them a direct obstacle to navigation. They began to appear in the city only after the death of the king.
Opening bridges
It is known that many different structures were erected both near the river and above it. But the most important are undoubtedly the bridges. They were built a large number of, and they are all different: some are needed for pedestrians, others are for cars, and still others are for railways. The oldest of them are: Annunciation, built in 1850, and Liteiny, erected in 1879.
Many of the bridges are movable, and in 2004 the opening of a new non-movable (cable-stayed) Bolshoy Obukhovsky Bridge took place. In 2007, the northern capital celebrated the opening of another cable-stayed bridge, the twin brother of Bolshoy Obukhovsky.

The Neva River is one of the most beautiful rivers Russia. Most people know it thanks to the beautiful St. Petersburg, located on its banks. As you know from the school course in geography, the Neva is one river, originating in Lake Ladoga, here is its source. In the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea, the Neva Bay is located, where the Neva flows into, where its mouth is.
Neva
The river flows through the territory Leningrad region and the city of St. Petersburg. Its length is 74 km, the length in a straight line from the source of the Neva to its mouth is 45 km. The depth is on average from 8 to 11 m, the deepest mark is 24 m. The Neva carries its waters along the plain, which is called the Neva Lowland. The banks descend steeply to the water, their height is 4-5 m, at the mouth of the river they are more gentle - 3-4 m. The place where the Neva flows into is the Gulf of Finland, it began, as already mentioned, in Lake Ladoga.
The width of the river is on average 600 m, the widest point reaches one kilometer. In comparison with other low-lying bodies of water, it is rather fast-flowing. The current speed is more than 1 m per second. The Neva River bends rather steeply in three places.
- At the Ivanovskiye rapids. About a three-kilometer stretch of the river with a shallow depth, frequent shoals and a high current speed of up to 4 m per second. It is located near the town of Otradnoye.
- Near Ust-Slavyanka - the historical district of St. Petersburg.
- At the Smolny Institute. This historic building is a monument of the early classicism era, built by the architect D. Quarenghi. It is currently the seat of the Governor.
The Neva, with a length of 75 km, is one of the largest, deepest and deepest rivers in Europe. Due to the uniform flow of water from Lake Ladoga (source), there are practically no spring floods on the river.
Delta of the Neva - St. Petersburg
The city of St. Petersburg was founded and built in a low-lying and swampy place. To drain the swamps, it was necessary to dig one hundred and one canals and a large number of ponds. The soil from the digging of the canals was used to raise the level of the islands. Over time, many of them lost their importance, they were covered with earth. Now the number of islands has decreased to 59.
The Neva Bay, where the Neva flows into, is located in the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea. At the confluence, the river forms a branched delta with many islands that are connected by canals. On these islands, in fact, St. Petersburg is located. The most famous islands- this is Zayachy and Vasilievsky. The first is Peter-Pavel's Fortress, on the second are the famous St. Petersburg Sphinxes and the building of the stock exchange.
Emperor Peter I had a dream to divide the largest of the islands, Vasilievsky, at the mouth of the Neva with canals, to make it look like a corner of Amsterdam. The ruler's dreams were not destined to come true. A. Menshikov, an associate of Emperor Peter I, squandered the funds available in the treasury. For a long time, people refused to settle on the island, since there were no roads here. Its mass settlement could be carried out only after the construction of bridges across the Neva.
The area of the basin of the waterway of St. Petersburg is about 5 thousand km 2, including the Onega and Ladoga lakes. It is distinguished by a complex structure of the hydrological network. The basin includes about 26.3 thousand lakes, 48.3 thousand rivers. 26 rivers and small rivers flow directly into the Neva. Its main tributaries are: on the right side - Izhora, Slavyanka, Mga, Tosna, Murzinka, on the left - Chernaya Rechka and Okhta.
Etymology of the name
There are several versions of the origin of the name of the river. The first, Finnish, from the word "neva", which translates as a treeless swamp. Translated from the Sami, the word "nёvё" means small, fast. The second version is based on the Swedish word "ny (en)" - new. There is also a Slavic hypothesis of the origin of the name Neva. From the chronicles it is known that Lake Ladoga, which is the source of the Neva, in the old days was called Nevo, which meant “new”. Apparently, the tribes that previously inhabited these lands were eyewitnesses to the emergence of water from the banks of the reservoir and the birth of the river.
St. Petersburg floods
The city is located in low-lying and swampy places, on islands connected by canals, rivers and canals. During strong autumn winds blowing from the southwestern side, water surges into the Gulf of Finland, where the Neva flows, and from there it flows along the river and channels to the city. Floods are frequent and sometimes disastrous. Near St. Isaac's Square there is a stele with marks of all known floods. The highest mark is at 4.21 m. This flood occurred in 1824 and was reflected in the work of A.S. Pushkin's "The Bronze Horseman".
In St. Petersburg on the Neva, floods occur from September to December. They cause significant damage to the city. The last very dangerous flood, when the water level along the Kronstadt footstaff was 220 cm, happened in 2007. In 2011, the construction of a complex of protective structures in the Neva Bay was completed. It was activated during the water surge on December 28, 2011. This helped to avoid a very dangerous flood, according to experts, the water level could rise to 281 cm. If they had not had time to close the dam, the city would have suffered multibillion-dollar damage.
Cities on the Neva
There are four cities in total on the banks of the Neva. This is primarily St. Petersburg, located on the Neva Bay of the Gulf of Finland. In addition, there are Otradnoye, Kirovsk, Shlisselburg on the river, located at the exit of the Neva from Ladoga. Numerous small settlements are located on the shores.
