Derzhprom, Constructivist office building in Freedom Square, Kharkiv, Ukraine.

The Derzhprom building rises 108 meters above Freedom Square with its connected towers, geometric forms, and extensive concrete construction displaying constructivist principles.

The construction of this Soviet administrative complex began in 1925 and upon its completion in 1928, it stood as the largest single structure in the world.

The building appears in multiple Soviet films of the 1920s and 1930s, including works by directors Dziga Vertov and Sergei Eisenstein.

The structure currently houses government offices and administrative institutions, with several walkways connecting different sections of the complex.

In October 2024, the building sustained damage from a Russian guided bomb during the conflict, affecting its structural integrity and internal spaces.
