The mansion of industrialist and biologist D.A. Alchevsky on Darvina, 13 (Дарвiна, 13 in Ukrainian, Дарвина, 13 in Russian).
It was built in an uncommon Moorish style by A.N. Beketov in 1896.
History[edit | edit source]
Due to financial problems in 1903 Professor Alchevsky sold his mansion to the Mutual Aid Society of Working Women, which opened a kindergarten in it.
In 1911-12 they added an additional spacious three-story building designed by the architect Piskunov, and opened a gymnasium in the building.
In 1924 it was transformed into secondary school No. 1.
Currently, this building also houses the Ukrainian-British College.
Status[edit | edit source]
Protected architectural monument.
