Музей «Литературная жизнь Урала XX века»

Музей «Литературная жизнь Урала XX века», Literature museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The Museum of Literary Life of the Urals documents the writers and poets who worked in the region throughout the 20th century through original manuscripts, published books, and personal objects. The collection reveals which authors were active here and traces the development of their literary work.

The house at 10 Proletarskaya Street was built in the style of Russian provincial Art Nouveau, following sketches and old photographs of house No. 40 on Kolobovskaya Street (now Tolmachyova Street), with architect Yankovsky taking part. From 1910 to 1912 it belonged to the attorney V. I. Ivanov, and from 1913 to 1918 to Dmitry Mikhailovich Veselov, an attorney and member of the Yekaterinburg district court, who lived there with his family. On 27 April 1987 the city council executive committee transferred the building to the museum.

The museum's name reflects the Ural region's strong tradition of producing writers and poets who shaped Russian literature. The displays show how local authors created works that responded to the events and social changes happening around them.

The museum occupies house No. 10 on Proletarskaya Street, in the building with kokoshniks above the windows, curved decorative lines, round and semi-round windows, a high porch and a pointed roof. The main displays are temporary exhibitions, while the permanent exhibition opened in 2011. The building is a regional cultural heritage site.

The building's design was copied from house No. 40 on Kolobovskaya Street (now Tolmachyova Street), using sketches and old photographs, with architect Yankovsky taking part. Look for the kokoshnik-shaped window surrounds, curved decorative lines, round and semicircular windows, a high porch and a pointed roof.
