Old Moscow Stock Exchange building, Federal cultural heritage site in Tverskoy District, Russia
The Old Moscow Stock Exchange building is a neoclassical structure with large columns and carefully detailed facade elements in central Moscow. The construction displays typical features of 19th-century financial architecture with symmetrical proportions and decorative details.
The building was constructed in 1873 and served as an important trading center during the rapid industrialization of the late 19th century. It played a central role in the development of Russian financial markets during this period of economic transformation.
The building served as a gathering place where merchants and traders conducted business with goods and securities. Visitors can still observe the traces of this commercial activity reflected in the interior details and architectural design today.
The location is centrally situated in Moscow and is easily accessible by public transportation. Nearby metro stations provide good connections for visiting the building.
The building retained its original 19th-century facade while many other Moscow structures were dramatically altered during the Soviet period. This preservation makes it a rare example of Tsarist-era architecture that remains visible today.
