Shakhovskoy House, Federal cultural heritage estate on Mokhovaya Street, Moscow, Russia.

The Shakhovskoy House features classical architectural elements with symmetrical design patterns, grand columns, and ornate decorative stone elements across its facade.

Built in 1820, the estate underwent major reconstruction in 1868 under architect Alexander Kaminsky, marking the first appearance of Neogrec style in Moscow architecture.

During the Soviet period, the building transformed from a noble residence into the Kalinin Museum, reflecting the changing social dynamics of Russian society.

The estate stands at coordinates 55.749952, 37.609757, near Moscow State University and the Russian State Library, making it accessible for architectural research visits.

The building combines classical architectural principles with Neogrec elements, creating a structure that initiated a new architectural direction in 19th-century Moscow.
