The Kamensk Ironworks Hospital building is a large building in the historical center of Kamensk-Uralsky, Sverdlovsk oblast.
The building was designated a regionally significant monument on December 31, 1987 (decision № 535 by the executive committee of Sverdlovsk Oblast Council of People's Deputies), under listing #661710794150005.
History
Prior to the erection of this hospital, there were already hospital wards for workers in the city, but they were scattered throughout the city and their interaction was not coordinated.
The street network had been reorganized shortly before construction was begun on the hospital. Krasnykh Orlov Street (formerly Upper Novaya Street) was being modernized. A decision was made to build the hospital near the pine forest for logistical reasons and to satisfy health requirements. The hospital was located along the road from the Razgulyaevsky mine to the Kamensk Ironworks.
The construction was ordered by the Kamensky Ironworks. Mikhail Pavlovich Malakhov served as the architect. The project was planned in 1817 and construction began in 1826. The original plan called for a one-story stone structure in the style of provincial classicism with straight lines, symmetrical composition, and minimal decoration. Later, in 1847-1849, a second floor was added, providing room for more hospital beds. The building was electrified in 1906.
Nowadays the house is residential.
Architecture
The building is L-shaped and features a wooden extension at the southern end of the facade, wind porches, and stairs inside the courtyard. The main western facade faces Krasnykh Orlov Street. Its composition is symmetrical. The central part is distinguished by a protruding rizalit topped by a triangular pediment with a stepped parapet. The large window openings are grouped in pairs. The simple cornice is continued along the entire perimeter of the building. On the other facades, the original decor was lost.
The building's corridor-based floor plan was constructed atop a quarried stone foundation. The original inner decor was lost. The walls are constructed of solid brick, plastered, and painted. The floors are wooden, and the roof is pitched slate on wooden rafters.
