🏛 Korney Chukovsky House

ул. Серафимовича, 3, Переделкино

The dacha where Chukovsky lived for more than thirty years and gathered children for his famous "bonfires". The house is closed for restoration — we look from outside.

Chukovsky lived in Peredelkino from the late 1930s until his death in 1969.
Every summer he held "bonfires" for children — festivals with poetry readings, where a pine cone was the entrance ticket.
After her father's death, Lydia Chukovskaya let visitors into the house for years; it officially became a museum in the 1990s.
The house is now under restoration, and it is promised to reopen no earlier than 2029.
