Rafailovich mansion, Heritage mansion on Frunze Street, Taganrog, Russia.

The Rafailovich mansion features a high basement, decorative amphorae above gates, and statues of women and mythological figures on the exterior walls.

Built in the 1860s for merchant Mikhail Karaspasov, the mansion later housed General Charles Mangin of the French mission during the 1919 military operations.

The architectural design combines elements of Classicism and Baroque styles, with Neobaroque details visible in the ornamental work of the building's facade.

Despite its single-story construction, the mansion's elevated foundation and rooftop decorations create an impression of greater height and grandeur.

The building served as headquarters for OSNAZ units and editorial office for 'Listok krasnoarmeytsa' journal during the early 1920s Soviet period.
