Description

The Uzhgorod microdistrict of Maly Galagov on the right bank of the Uzh River was designed in the early 1920s by professor of architecture A. Liebscher. Administrative buildings were concentrated here, and 150 million crowns were spent on their construction in the late 1920s and early 1930s. The photo shows the view of the Zemsky Government building, built in 1932-1934 by the Czech architect A. Krupka on Beskyda Square (now Narodna Square). "...The building is characterized by maximum simplicity in its exterior design, which is violated only by a high base made of rough-hewn white marble, a portico supporting a front balcony with columns, and a five-story risalit enriched with square pilasters. The same severity with simultaneous maximum functionality is inherent in the interior design of this typical constructivist style building..." J. Koval, "Uzhgorod is known for unknown".
