First Gymnasium for girls
First Gymnasium for girls, Educational heritage site in Yekaterinburg, Russia
The First Gymnasium for Girls is an educational complex in Yekaterinburg that brings together classroom spaces and a house of worship within one building. The structure was designed by architect Julius Dutel and merges two distinct functions into its layout.
The gymnasium was founded in the early 20th century and marked a turning point in women's education in Russia. It represented new possibilities for girls at a time when schooling for females was not yet a given.
The building shows how education and religion intertwined in pre-revolutionary Russia. Visitors can see today how these two spheres existed side by side in the same space.
The building is located in Yekaterinburg and welcomes visitors interested in seeing its architectural details and interior spaces. It is worth allowing time to explore both the classroom areas and the church section at your own pace.
What sets this building apart is that the church was completely integrated into the school complex, not as a separate space. This arrangement shows how faith was woven directly into the daily school life of the students.
