History

The hospital building of Kamensk Ironworks was not the first medical institution of the town. Earlier there were hospital wards for workers, but they were dotted around the town and were not well-coordinated. Before the beginning of the construction there was a realigning of street network. A modern view of Krasnykh Orlov Street (former Upper Novaya) was being formed. It was decided to build the hospital close to pinewood because of health requirements and logistics. The hospital was located straight to road from Razgulyaevsky mine to the Kamensk Ironworks.[3]

The order for construction was from the Kamensk Ironworks. The author of the project was Mikhail Pavlovich Malakhov, a Urals architector. The project was prepared in 1817. The works began in 1826. The provincial сlassicism building was a one-storey stone building with straight lines and minimum elements of decor in the original plan. The composition was symmetrical. Later, in 1847-1849, the second floor was reconstructed and built up. It increased the space for number of hospital beds. The hospital building was electrified only in 1906.[3]

Nowadays the houde is residential.[3]

Architecture

The building is L-shaped complicated by a wooden extension at the southern facade, wind porches and stairs inside the courtyard. The main western facade faces Krasnykh Orlov Street. Its composition is symmetrical. The central part is distinguished by a protruding rizalit completed by a triangular front with a stepped parapet. Large-sized window openings are grouped in pairs. The cornice with a simple profile is continued along the entire belt of the building. On the other facades the original decor was lost.[4]

The building with a corridor-type arrangement is based on quarried stone foundation. The original inner decor was lost. The walls are made of solid bricks, plastered and painted. The floors are wooden, the roof is pitched slate on wooden rafters.[4]
