Old Moscow Stock Exchange building, Stock exchange building in Kitay-gorod, Moscow, Russia

The Old Moscow Stock Exchange building stands at the corner of Ilyinka Street and Rybny Lane in Kitay-gorod. Alexander Kaminsky built it in 1873–1875 in late eclectic style, replacing Mikhail Bykovsky's 1830s exchange. The Ilyinka side has a classical portico; the two-storey neo-Renaissance side facade faces Rybny Lane. It was designed to hold up to 1,150 people at once, and a further floor was added in 1925 to Ivan Kuznetsov's design.

Moscow's merchants petitioned Prince Dmitry Golitsyn for an exchange in 1828, and it opened on 8 November 1839 in Mikhail Bykovsky's building on the corner of Ilyinka and Rybny Lane, funded partly by Nicholas I. Alexander Kaminsky rebuilt it in 1873–1875 for up to 1,150 traders, demolishing the Uspenskaya (Pyatnitskaya) church on the site. Ivan Kuznetsov added a floor in 1925.

The square next to Ilyinka is named Birzhevaya after the exchange. Before the first exchange opened on 8 November 1839, brokers gathered outdoors on a terrace with thin metal columns that Mikhail Bykovsky added between two arched entrances, refusing to enter the main hall. Since the 1990s the building has housed the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Russia.

The building stands in Kitay-gorod at the corner of Ilyinka Street and Rybny Lane, a short walk from the Ploshchad Revolyutsii and Kitay-gorod metro stations. The facade on Ilyinka faces the open space of Birzhevaya Square, named after the exchange; the Rybny Lane side shows the two-storey neo-Renaissance front. Since the 1990s the building has housed the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Russia, so interior access depends on its working hours.

The trading floor was designed to hold up to 1,150 people at once. Before the exchange moved in, brokers refused to enter the main hall and gathered outside on a terrace with thin metal columns that Mikhail Bykovsky had placed between two arched entrances.
