Why Visit Maryina Roshcha Metro Station?

The station links to the Maryina Roshcha railway station and the Moscow Central Diameters lines D2 and D4, as well as to buses and trolleybuses, so it is a good starting point for the north of the city.
It lies in the Maryina Roshcha district, which holds several museums, including the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center and the Central Armed Forces Museum, each with its own article and tickets.
Highlights of Maryina Roshcha Metro Station
A deep station
Maryina Roshcha is a deep pylon triple-vault station about 60 meters underground. It has one island platform and two tracks.
The depth means a long escalator ride between the street and the platform.
Tip: Allow a few minutes for the escalators when you plan your time.
The northern terminus until 2016
The station opened on 19 June 2010, together with Dostoevskaya, and was the northern end of Line 10 until the extension of 2016.
The extension opened on 16 September 2016 to the north of the station.
Tip: Check the line map to see how Line 10 reaches the north today.
Rail and city connections

It makes the station a good point for changing between modes of transport.
Tip: Check the exit signs for the railway platforms before you leave the Metro.
A planned link to the Big Circle
A transfer to a Bolshaya Koltsevaya Line station of the same name was planned, with a station that would be one of the deepest in the Metro.

Museums within reach

Tip: Check a map for the walking route, since the walking times were not verified.
Architects Kurenbaev and Shutov
Structurae names the architects A. L. Kurenbaev and A. M. Shutov.
The decoration of the platform hall was not described in the sources found.
Tip: Look at the hall on arrival, and compare it with Dostoevskaya, the next station south.
Atmosphere
The platform is deep and calm, with a steady flow of passengers heading for the escalators. The sound is the hum of the escalators, trains and footsteps, and the light is even and clean.
Commuters from the northern districts use it every day, and visitors heading for the museums pass through. Above ground, the station sits among the streets of Maryina Roshcha, next to the railway line.
It is busiest at rush hours, and calmer in the middle of the day on weekdays and late in the evening.
History of Maryina Roshcha Metro Station
The Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line was extended north from the center in the 2000s. After Trubnaya and Sretensky Bulvar opened in 2007, the next stage ran north to Dostoevskaya and Maryina Roshcha.
In April 2009 a lack of funds forced the Metro authorities to delay the opening of the stations. The new section, 3.5 kilometers long from Trubnaya, opened on 19 June 2010, with Dostoevskaya and Maryina Roshcha as its new stations.
Maryina Roshcha was the northern terminus of the line until 2016. It is a deep pylon triple-vault station, about 60 meters deep, with one island platform. The architects are given as A. L. Kurenbaev and A. M. Shutov.
The projected opening of the extension north of the station was moved several times, and it was finally opened on 16 September 2016.
The station is close to the Maryina Roshcha railway station, which serves the Moscow Central Diameters lines D2 and D4. A transfer to a Bolshaya Koltsevaya Line station of the same name was planned, and its status should be checked.
Today the station is a working stop on Line 10 in the north of the center, in the district of Maryina Roshcha.
Tickets and Booking for Maryina Roshcha Metro Station
There is no ticket for the station itself; entering needs a Metro fare.

Check the current fare on the official Moscow Metro site, mosmetro.ru.
- Troika card: a reusable card sold at ticket windows and top-up machines in station halls and through the official Metro app; the deposit is reported as a small amount (₽), so check the price.
- Foreign cards: reports conflict on whether foreign Visa or Mastercard cards and phone payments work at the turnstiles, so carry rubles in cash and buy a ticket or card at a ticket window.

It offers general recommendations only, not professional, legal or travel advice.

International sanctions affect payments between Russia and many other countries. In practice, cards issued in the EU, the UK, the US and several other countries often do not work in Russia, Russian cards usually do not work abroad, and some booking platforms, airlines and payment providers limit or suspend their services for Russia. The situation changes frequently. We do not give legal or financial advice, and this site does not encourage anyone to break or circumvent sanctions. Whatever you plan, you are responsible for following the laws and regulations that apply to you, including those of your country of residence and citizenship. Many travelers still organise their stay lawfully. It is worth asking your bank or payment provider what is currently permitted, contacting hotels, tour operators and carriers directly about the payment methods they accept, and checking which services are open to customers from your country. Clarify payment, cancellation and refund terms before you commit to a booking, and keep your plans flexible.
