Ludwig Nobel's Mechanical Factory, Industrial heritage site in Vyborgsky District, Russia.

The factory complex includes a yellow stone mansion with red architectural details constructed in 1876, reflecting Italian Renaissance design elements.

Founded by Ludvig Nobel in 1862, the factory manufactured military equipment including cannons, gun carriages, and underwater mines until its transformation into Russian Diesel.

The factory mansion served as both residence and headquarters, hosting meetings of the Nobel Brotherhood Partnership that shaped Russian industrial development.

Located near the Neva River, the factory buildings remain standing but require substantial restoration due to decades of abandonment since the 1990s bankruptcy.

The factory complex represents the initial foundation of the Nobel family's industrial empire in Russia before their expansion into the petroleum sector.

Location: Vyborgsky District

Inception: 1890s
