A Journey Through Stalinist Architecture around the World Part I: The Former Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic

Now, this might be seen as the continuation of my earlier blog post involving my somewhat informative rant on both Stalinist Architecture and Constructivism. In this series of blog posts, I will just try my best and share Stalinist Architecture that can be found around the world.

The first country that has a sizeable amount of these buildings is the biggest republic in the former Soviet Union, the Russian Soviet Republic. Here are several examples of the buildings built in Stalinist style in the Russian Federation.

This is the Moscow State University in Russia, one of the Seven Sisters of Moscow

The main entrance to All-Union Agricultural Exhibition in Moscow

 The Red Army Theatre in Moscow

 

Rosenfeld tower in Moscow

 Hotel Ukraina in Moscow, one of the Seven Sisters of Moscow

 

The Moscow Metro

Main building of the South Ural State University in Chelyabinsk  

 City Duma in Yekaterinburg 

 Stalinist apartment blocks in Moscow. 

Stalinist architecture has seen a form of revival in today's Russia leading to newer Stalinist style buildings popping up in the skyline. 

This is the Triumph Palace in Moscow, built only recently, in the style of the "Seven Sisters of Moscow"

On the next part of this picture series, I will post Stalinist buildings from the other former Soviet republics such as Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Belarus.
