Историческая справка
You can see a two-storey wooden building (Staraya Basmannaya Street 20, Bld 9) near the checkpoint. After the recent renovation, it seems impossible to believe that this building is 138 years old. You can see the original building in the pictures. This house was built in 1882 for the school of workers of the Bostanzhoglo's tobacco factory.
In 1859, the merchant Mikhail Bostanzhoglo (by origin Greek from the Ukrainian town of Nezhin) bought the household number 20 for his tobacco factory. It is believed that Mikhail Bostanzhoglo was the first to bring cigarettes to Moscow.
The Bostanzhoglo family was related to the Alekseev merchant family from which the famous theatre director Konstantin Stanislavsky came. In his memories, Stanislavskiy referred to Mikhail Bostanzhoglo as "Old man B." There is an interesting passage about Bostanzhoglo kidnapping his future wife from the Turkish sultan: "... Old man B. kidnapped her from the harem and hid her in a box that was checked in as luggage. When the ship was at sea, the box was opened and the harem prisoner was released."
On the site of the house No. 20 bld 1, which also belonged to the Bostanzhoglo family, the Bauman District Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks was located in the 1920s. At that time, Nikita Khrushchev was the first secretary there.
