🚶 Kropotkinskaya Street

Дмитров, Кропоткинская ул.

An old merchants' street at the foot of the rampart: the Novoselov and Klyatov houses, bronze townspeople and the house where the anarchist Pyotr Kropotkin spent his last years.

Before the revolution the street was called Dvoryanskaya (Nobles') Street.
The Klyatov house was built in 1822 in the spirit of wooden classicism, and the neighbouring house of the merchant Novoselov in 1842 in the Empire style.
Sculptures of Dmitrov residents of different classes were installed in 2003 (sculptor A. Karaulov), and Rukavishnikov's monument to Kropotkin in 2004.
Kropotkin lived in Count Olsufyev's house from May 1918 until his death on 8 February 1921 and worked on his “Ethics” here.
The Kropotkin House Museum opened on 6 September 2014; the authentic stoves and a fireplace of the late 19th century survive in it.
