Terenin House

The Terenin House in Kaluga, built in the early 20th century in the Art Nouveau style with elements of eclecticism, was originally intended as a wedding dowry for his daughter Lyubov. Among its architectural features are a semicircular bay window on the second floor, a complex gable with stucco molding, an openwork parapet railing, and an octagonal domed roof on the corner. In memory of his daughter, after her death, two winged cupids holding the family coat of arms appeared on the facade, and the pediment on the Voskresenskaya Street side is adorned with an antique figure of a girl, copied from a family photograph. Since 1998, the building, which underwent a complete restoration in 2013, has housed the Kaluga Palace of Marriage Registrations.
