Masharov House, Federal cultural heritage site in Tyumen, Russia.
The Masharov House is a late 19th-century building located on Lenina Street in Tyumen that displays typical features of classical Russian residential architecture from that era. Several rooms are furnished with historical objects and documents that convey what life was like during that period.
The building was constructed in 1870 as a residence for a wealthy industrialist and retained its original form until the state took it over in 1917. After that it was repurposed, though it did not lose its original character.
The house reveals how prosperous families lived and worked in Tyumen during the 1800s through displayed objects and documents. These items show the daily routines and local connections of the residents who occupied these rooms.
The building is easily accessible in downtown Tyumen and can be reached on foot from other local landmarks. A daytime visit works best since natural light clearly reveals the details of the rooms and displays.
The house forms part of a larger museum complex and still displays original architectural details from when it was built in the 1870s. These visible features let visitors experience directly how the building originally looked.
