Journalist House

The Journalist House is a solid stone building in Perm featuring traditional Russian architecture with detailed window frames and decorative cornices. Inside, exhibition spaces display documents, photographs, and professional equipment from different periods of Russian media history.

The building was constructed during the 1870s as a gathering place for media professionals during a period of rapid press expansion in Russia. This development coincided with growing public interest in news and a society undergoing significant modernization.

The house reflects how journalists shaped public discourse in their time, and you can see how their daily work looked across different eras. The exhibitions reveal the tools and methods that media professionals used and how their practices evolved over decades.

The building is open on most weekdays and can be visited with guided tours, where advance reservations are recommended. Plan to spend an hour or two exploring the exhibits and verify that your preferred language is available for tours.

Several rooms retain their original furniture arrangements and writing materials, offering direct insight into how journalists actually worked in the 19th century. These details create a tangible sense of the working conditions and daily routines in a historical newsroom.
