Moscow Highway (Pushkin)

Moscow Highway in the city of Pushkin is known for its historical sites, among which the Moscow Gates, built in 1829–1831, stand out. Initially, an asymmetrical entrance with one pavilion was planned, but at the end of 1829, an order was issued to erect a second pylon, which collapsed as a result of a traffic accident on July 5, 2021. The street is also home to the Deriker dacha (house 27), erected in 1875 by A. Kh. Kolb and rebuilt by S. A. Danini, which was severely damaged by a fire in 2016 and has been awaiting restoration since 2019. House No. 23 houses the museum of the artist Pavel Chistyakov, who lived and worked here from 1877 to 1919 in a building constructed by architect Alexander Kolb.
