House of Officers, Concert hall and military community center in Vinnytsia, Ukraine

The House of Officers is a concert hall and military community center in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, known for its Stalinist architecture. Massive columns frame the entrance, while symmetrical rows of windows and ornamental reliefs cover the entire facade, giving the building a monumental character.

The building was completed in 1940 and served as a gathering place for military personnel and civilians during the Soviet era. After decades of use as a cultural center, it suffered severe damage in a missile strike in July 2022.

The building's name comes from its Soviet role as a garrison club for the Red Army and later the Air Force. Its facade carried a stylized bas-relief of a BT-7 light tank, covered in 1998 by a plastic falcon emblem designed by serviceman Valeriy Lyakhov. In April 2022 ten posters of Ukrainian hero cities, shown before and after the Russian invasion, were hung on the facade. The building has been closed since the July 2022 missile strike.

The building stands on Peremohy Square at 37 Kotsiubynskoho Street, in central Vinnytsia. It has been closed since the July 2022 missile strike: an inspection on 15 July 2022 found it unfit for its intended use, and in August 2022 it was declared unsafe. Conservation work was completed and a restoration project approved in February 2024, but as of February 2026 construction had not begun. The MiG-21 monument stands beside it.

The facade once carried a stylised bas-relief of a BT-7 light tank; in 1998 military designer Valerii Liakhov covered it with a plastic falcon emblem of the Ukrainian Air Force. A converted MiG-21 fighter was mounted beside the building the same year. Since the July 2022 strike the building has been declared unfit and emergency-status, with conservation done and a restoration project approved in February 2024.
