Палаты Сверчкова, Historic chambers in Basmanny District, Russia
The red brick Sverchkov Chambers features two floors with green roofing and white stone cellars, located at Sverchkov Lane 8.
Built in the late 16th century, these chambers belonged to merchant I.M. Sverchkov, who funded the construction of the Assumption Church on Pokrovka.
The building underwent transformations from private residence to crafts school, housing the Stone Department and various governmental institutions throughout the 18th century.
Following extensive restoration in the late 1970s, the chambers now serve as the State House of Folk Art, maintaining its connection to Russian traditions.
The underground cellars contain white stone walls from the original construction period, making them the oldest part of the structure.
