Hoving House in Vyborg, National Romantic architecture landmark on Krepostnaya Street, Vyborg, Russia.

The five-story building features granite walls, distinctive bay windows, gables, plant ornaments, and intricate window frames in northern modern style.

Architect Karl Hard af Segerstad designed this building in 1904 for Victor Hoving, who operated the only Finnish and Swedish language bookstore in Vyborg.

The structure exemplifies National Romantic architectural features with its natural stone surfaces, asymmetrical composition, and decorative Nordic-inspired elements.

The building remained residential until the 1980s when authorities decided to convert it into a hotel, leading to its subsequent abandonment and deterioration.

In 2021, the Vyborg City Court transferred the ownership of this deteriorating architectural monument to the Leningrad Region administration for preservation.
