Palace of Children and Youth Creativity

The Palace of Children and Youth Creativity is an educational center in Rostov-on-Don located on Bolshaya Sadovaya Street. The building houses several departments offering programs in science, visual arts, music, crafts, and technical subjects for children and youth aged 5 to 18.

The center was founded in 1936 as the Palace of Pioneers and October and later moved into the former Volga-Kama Bank building. This move to a distinctive structure became a defining moment that continues to shape how the institution appears today.

The building once served as a bank and retains architectural details from that era in its design. Today, young people use the spaces to explore music, visual arts, journalism, and hands-on crafts in a setting that blends historical character with learning.

The building is centrally located in the city and easy to access. Visitors should check ahead to learn which programs run at different times, as various departments may have different schedules.

The institution created its own museums during the economic struggles of the 1990s, focusing on regional history and character. These collections preserve local stories and offer insight into the cultural identity of Rostov-on-Don.
