Muromtsev Dacha, Wooden country house in Tsaritsyno District, Moscow, Russia.
Muromtsev Dacha was a three-story wooden building with Swedish-style turrets situated on a spacious plot in southern Moscow. The structure contained multiple rooms and functional areas typical of grand country estates from that period.
The house was built in 1893 by Sergey Muromtsev, chairman of the First Imperial Duma. Following war damage, it was nationalized in 1918 and later underwent major reconstruction during the 1960s.
The residence attracted Russian writers and thinkers in the late 1800s who gathered here to exchange ideas. Visitors included notable figures like Venedikt Yerofeyev and Ivan Bunin, who spent time in these rooms filled with literary conversation.
The building was located in a residential area of Tsaritsyno District, accessible by public transportation. The site was surrounded by other local landmarks and situated in an established neighborhood with various shops and services nearby.
The property was demolished in March 2010 while applications were still being processed to have it recognized as a cultural heritage site. This was a controversial event that left a mark on local history.
