The small, elegant mansion nearby is house 19 on Liteyny prospekt which remembers grand receptions and social salons and now serves as the central building of the Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov Library. The mansion, built in 1804, belonged to the Musin-Pushkin family from 1856 until the revolution. After the October Revolution, the building was nationalised, and in the early 1930s, when the city palaces and rich houses were given to cultural institutions, it housed a book collection.
German Ideology by Marx and Engels, What the ‘Friends of the People’ Are and How They Fight the Social-Democrats by Lenin, On Electrification, Philosophical Notebooks, Mayakovsky Smiles by Vladimir Mayakovsky, The First Years by Alexander Zharov, Signal by Vsevolod Garshin: it was these books that were the first to enter the vaults. In 1937, in the former mansion the regional mass library of Dzerzhinsky district was opened and later named after Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov in honour of the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the poet. The library continues to operate under the same name in the same building to this day.
