Rotchev House, Russian colonial residence in Fort Ross, United States.
The Rotchev House features hand-squared redwood timbers joined by notches at corners, with a steep hip roof made from split planks.
Built in 1836, this structure served as the home of Alexander Rotchev, the last Russian-American Company manager at Fort Ross until 1841.
The residence contained a library, piano, and refined furnishings, representing the educated Russian presence on California's northern frontier.
Visitors can explore the seven chambers and main hall of this National Historic Landmark within Fort Ross State Historic Park.
The Rotchev House remains the sole original Russian-built structure among seven buildings within the Fort Ross compound.
