Архитектурные достопримечательности Дом с химерами

I had read about it and tried to get there. The free walking tour took us as close as possilbe. It is not possible to get anywhere near any longer. You can see on the photo that we were alted far away by the presidential guards.

Дом с химерами я долго искала, никак не могла найти. Пришлось прокладывать путь с помощью навигатора. Внутрь дома с Химерами я конечно не попала, но снаружи он смотрится просто потрясающе! Весь украшен необыкновенной лепниной, рассматривать которую можно часами.

Luogo bello vicino tra laltro casualmente alla ns ambasciata .... te lo ritrovia a ds camminando completamente fuori contesto ma particolare

Здание находится прямо напротив резиденции президента. Здание красивое, ценители архитектуры оценят. Придти и специально смотреть на этот дом, возможно, не стоит, но как часть прогулки по центру, будет интересно ознакомиться.

You can't get close, there are 2 blocks of police, the closest You can go is 100 metres... You can't basically see nothing!

Well, there is nothing spetial in this house.It is a beutiful house located in nice neibourhood. I have been there at 2006 and 2016.Durng my 2nd visit therewere seme policemen that forbid us to come near the house, it seems because we had our cameras on us.The rest of the people could pass without any problem. When I asked what is the reason for not letting us pass they told us that only the residences can go on that street.so just put your camera in your bag.

You can't go inside or get within 100m due to the security as it's beside the presidents office but this is well worth a visit to take pictures at least. It's unique and very interesting to read the history of the place.It's an Art Nouveau building located in the historic Lypky neighborhood of Kiev. Situated across the street from the President of Ukraine's office at No. 10, Bankova Street, the building has been used as a presidential residence for official and diplomatic ceremonies since 2005. The street in front of the building is closed off to all automobile traffic, and is now a patrolled pedestrian zone due to its near proximity to the Presidential Administration building.Architect Vladislav Gorodetsky originally constructed the House with Chimaeras for use as his own upmarket apartment building during the period of 1901–1902. However, as the years went by, Gorodetsky eventually had to sell the building due to financial troubles, after which it changed ownership numerous times before finally being occupied by an official Communist Party polyclinic until the early 2000s. When the building was vacated, its interior and exterior decor were fully reconstructed and restored according to Gorodetsky's original plans.The building derives its popular name from the ornate decorations depicting exotic animals and hunting scenes, which were sculpted by Italian architect Emilio Sala since Gorodetsky was an avid hunter. The name does not refer to the chimaera of mythology, but to an architectural style known as chimaera decoration in which animal figures are applied as decorative elements to a building.

Esta casa situa-se na zona do palácio presidencial de forma que o seu acesso está limitado pelos forças militares. O interesse está nas esculturas no rebordo superior do edifício

You can only see part of this house from the outside, since it is gated. It is interesting to see how they used concrete to do the sculptures.

Экскурсия потрясающая. Дом с химерами - безусловный шедевр! Фантазия Городецкого впечатляет и восхищает.

Can only be viewed from outside as it is part of the Presidential complexA Ukrainian architect who liked using concrete & accumulating hunting trophies so he combined the two into a house Worth a look

Учитывая отсутствие прямой доступности к осмотру этого объекта, интерес к нему пропал...С расстояния двухсот метров не заинтриговал.Всё...
