Rosneft headquarter
Rosneft headquarter, Corporate headquarters at Sofiyskaya Embankment, Moscow, Russia
Description
Rosneft headquarters is an Art Nouveau building along the Sofiyskaya Embankment in Moscow, featuring a symmetrical facade with ornate stone decorations and large arched windows. The structure merges Art Nouveau characteristics with traditional Moscow construction methods from the early 1900s.
History
The building was constructed in 1902 according to designs by architects Karl Gippius and Tomasz Bohdanowicz-Dworzecki as a residential complex. It later underwent conversion into office space and now functions as the administrative center of a major energy company.
Culture
The building displays early 20th-century Russian architectural features through its stone ornaments and arched windows, which remain distinctive in the Yakimanka district. These design elements continue to shape the visual character of the neighborhood.
Practical
The building sits along a recognizable river section in central Moscow and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors can appreciate the external architecture from the street, but the interior is not open to the public.
Did you know?
The facade preserves its original 1902 design despite the building now serving administrative functions for a large company. This balance between historical appearance and modern use makes the site particularly noteworthy.
