where is frankenstein set

Frankenstein is set across several European locations and in various northern settings, with the narrative spanning Geneva, Ingolstadt, the Swiss Alps, and the Arctic, among others. The story follows Victor Frankenstein’s travels through England and Scotland as he pursues the pursuit of knowledge, encounters the monster, and confronts the consequences of creation. In short, the setting is a travelogue across Europe and the polar regions, rather than a single fixed locale.
