Shamil House, Kazan, Literary museum in Old Tatar district, Kazan, Russia.
The two-story brick building features ornate turrets, decorated facades, and architectural elements combining Tatar and European design styles at Tukaya Street 74.
The mansion, built in 1863 for merchant Ibragim Apakov, later belonged to Shamil's son through marriage before becoming a literary museum in 1986.
The museum displays manuscripts, photographs, and personal items of Gabdulla Tukay, preserving the legacy of this influential Tatar poet.
Museum visitors can explore exhibitions from Tuesday to Sunday, with extended hours until 21:00 on Thursdays and regular guided tours in several languages.
The building underwent multiple color changes throughout its history, from light yellow to green, and now displays a soft coffee shade on its walls.
