Savvinskoye Podvorie, Federal cultural heritage building on Tverskaya Street, Moscow, Russia

The five-story stone structure features multiple pointed towers, decorative ceramic tiles, and large semicircular windows divided by balusters on its exterior facade.

In 1939, engineers successfully relocated the entire 24,000-ton building 50 meters back from Tverskaya Street while residents remained inside their apartments.

The building incorporates Russian Revival architectural elements with green-tinted tiles, ornate window frames, and ceramic panels depicting firebirds and traditional patterns.

Located behind a Stalinist-era building, this residential structure maintains its original function while housing a gallery of Russian and Byzantine icons.

The structure served as a film production site for Khanzhonkov Studio, which constructed a large glass-roofed pavilion in the back courtyard until the 1920s.

Location: Tverskoy District

Inception: 1907

Architectural style: Russian Revival architecture

GPS coordinates: 55.76028,37.61167
