Gorny Institut (Russian: Горный институт) is the station of Saint Petersburg Metro. It is the northern terminus of Line 4. The station was opened on 27 December 2024 as a one-station extension from Spasskaya and became the first metro station opened in Saint Petersburg in five years.[1][2]

The opening of the station was originally planned for 2018 but it was postponed several times. Teatralnaya station is located between Spasskaya and Gorny Institut, however, the exits of that station have not yet been built, and the station is planned for opening in 2027.[1]

The station is located in Municipal Okrug 7 of Vasileostrovsky District, at the crossing of Bolshoy Avenue of Vasilyevsky Island and 24—25 Lines of Vasilyevsky Island, next to Saint Petersburg Mining University (hence the name, which means "Mining Institute" in Russian).
