Drama Theater

Drama Theater was built in 1960 on almost the same place where there was the second largest church in Mariupol named after Mary Magdalene. It is worth paying attention to the sculptures on top of the building. They symbolize three main professions of Priazovia and Mariupol particularly, which are: metallurgist, mine worker and a farmer.

The house of Tregubov

There is a beautiful complex of classic buildings next to the Theater Park. The building on the left side and the central one are more than 100 years old. Before revolution they belonged to one of the most successfull businessmen in the city – Mikhail Tregubov and then his son Abram.

Kuindzhi Street

The street is named after the world-wide famous painter born in Mariupol Arkhip Kuindzhi. Before the revolution 1917 the street had a name Bolnichna which literary means “the hospital street” because there was a hospital located in here.

The art school

The school is currently open and provide courses for kids in music, painting, singing, etc. It was opened in 1953 as a Music school for children.

Mury Prospect

The main street of Mariupol has changed 5 names during its history. The first name was “Bolshaya” which means “big, wide”. There was the biggest cathedral in the city – Charlampievsky. It was destroyed in 1937 by Soviet authorities.

Fountain

We are getting back to the middle of the park. It was founded at the end of XIX century and became one of the favourite places for locals. The fountain in the center of the park changed its appearance four times and the last reconstruction was made just recently – in 2018.

Houses with the spires

Another historical landmark and a symbol of the city is the houses with the spires. They are houses-twins, but actually there are plenty of differences if you look closer at the architectural details.

The water tower, Victor Nielsen sculpture

Victor Nielsen was the main city architect at the beginning of XIX century. There are six mini-sculptures of him located around the city center.

The water tower

Another landmark of the city. The water tower was constructed in 1910 and it solved the problem of water supply for nearlt 60 000 people. Later it was used as an observation desk for firefighters, then as a bank, and since 2018 it is a cultural tuoristic center.
