House with Owls

The House with Owls is situated at Turgenev Street, 8 in Vyborg. It is an architectural monument from the early 20th century designed by Finnish architect Otto Varjovaara. From 1918 to 1919, artist Nikolay Roerich lived here with his family, temporarily staying in Finland after the revolution. In 2019, a memorial plaque was installed on the building in memory of Roerich. The structure has protective status under the decree of the Council of Ministers of RSFSR and the presidential order of Russia.
