Özet: The article is devoted to the biography of one of the founders of the Russian scout movement, the first organizer of the Scouting Legion in St. Petersburg at the 1st male classical gymnasium Vasily Grigorievich Yanchevetsky, which is little covered in the historiography of the Scout movement. Yanchevetsky was a diversified man, keen on nature, from childhood he was interested in literally everything that surrounded him. The study of his biography just proves that he was an intelligent and pleasant companion, a talented teacher and writer, a translator, an avid traveler and had an amazing imagination, thanks to which he created a series of historical stories and novels. The published article is an addition to the master's thesis on the history of the scout movement in St. Petersburg, which includes a study of the period of life of Yanchevetsky during his teaching activities as a teacher of Latin at the gymnasium.
