Starchikov Apartment House
Detailed description
The building was built in 1858-1859. It is known that the house was residential until 1907.
The Starichkov House is popular because it was here that A. N. Lodygin put his first lantern in 1873, who had a workshop nearby. In honor of this, a monument to the lamplighter was erected next to this house in 1989, and in 1996 a memorial plaque was erected to the world's first electric lantern.
