Pavel Bazhov Memorial House-Museum

Pavel Bazhov Memorial House-Museum, Memorial house museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The Pavel Bazhov Memorial House-Museum is a wooden residence in Yekaterinburg that the writer himself built and inhabited. Inside are original furnishings, his personal objects, and the study room where he created his literary works.

Bazhov began building the house in 1911 at the corner of the former Arkhiereyskaya and Bolotnaya streets; his family lived in it from 1914 until their move to Kamyshlov, and he returned in October 1923 and stayed until his death. His widow Valentina Alexandrovna remained until 1968. The museum was created by a city executive committee decision of 22 March 1966 and a Ministry of Culture order of 1 March 1967, opening its displays to visitors on 3 February 1969.

Bazhov's study doubled as the bedroom of the elder Bazhovs, and there he received his many visitors; the dining room stood opposite. The house holds his library of about 2,000 books, many carrying inscriptions from writers he knew. His wife Valentina Alexandrovna lived on here until 1968.

The house stands at the corner of Chapayev and Bolshakov streets, with its carved wooden porch and three windows facing Chapayev and five windows facing Bolshakov. The garden, vegetable plot, table under the linden and benches under the rowan tree are preserved beside the house, so allow time to walk the grounds as well as the four rooms, kitchen and hallway.

Bazhov's library in the house holds about 2,000 books, many carrying autographs from writers he knew. The garden was planted by the Bazhov family itself, with lindens, birches, apple trees, lilacs, bird cherries and cherries; a small table under a linden served the writer's guests, and benches under a rowan were his favourites.
