Supreme Council of Crimea, Legislative building in Simferopol, Ukraine
The Supreme Council of Crimea was a legislative building in Simferopol with 100 seats that served as the regional parliament. The institution managed local matters such as education, healthcare, and economic development for the autonomous republic.
The building emerged in 1991 from the executive committee of the Crimean regional council, marking an important transition within the Soviet framework. It functioned as a regional legislative center until political changes led to its closure in 2014.
The parliament published all legal acts in Ukrainian, Russian, and Crimean Tatar languages to serve the region's diverse population groups.
The building stands in central Simferopol and is easily reached on foot. Visitors should know that access today is restricted and the building does not operate as a public facility.
Armed individuals seized control of the parliament building on February 27, 2014, leading to its subsequent dissolution by Ukrainian authorities.
