History Gallery Spaces for rent Contacts History The Owental History Business Center is located in the central area at 14 Socialist Street. The building was designed and built by the famous architect Boris Ionovich Girshovich, the author of such projects as the Serebryakova house (Gagarinskaya street, 2), the Ziva house (Rizhsky prospect, 29), the building of the Azov commercial bank (Nevsky prospect, 62) and many other well-known buildings. Construction lasted 2 years and was completed in 1906. The facade of the house is finished with stone, majolica tiles and light bricks in the classic Art Nouveau style. A distinctive feature of the building is its symmetrical shape, highlighted by the main entrance in the form of a portal, a large bay window, decorated with metal and granite, and a gable roof. The house is horizontally divided by a decorative frieze made in the studio of the sculptor V.V. Kozlov. В 1907 году Городской комиссией Санкт-Петербурга архитектору Гиршовичу была присуждена серебряная медаль за лучший фасад дома, построенного в течение четырех последних лет. Заказчиком строительства выступал П. В. Березин. По завершении строительства в здании расположилась типография «Художественная печать» и жилые апартаменты. В типографии издавались такие газеты и журналы, как «Земщина», «Звезда», «Луч», «Жаворонок» «Пробуждение» и многие другие. The Bolshevik newspaper "Pravda" began to be published in the printing house on May 5, 1912. The last issue of the newspaper issued by this printing house is dated July 8, 1914. During the October armed coup, the building was seized by the Bolsheviks and the publication of the Pravda newspaper was resumed and continued until March 10, 1918. During the Great Patriotic War, the printing house was engaged in printing leaflets, TASS bulletins, reports of the Sofinformburo, publishing newspapers, magazines and textbooks. The printing house published such newspapers as Smena, Leningradskaya Pravda and many others. In 2006 the house was reconstructed. After the completion of the work, the Owental History Business Center was opened in the building.
