Railway Station Smolensk as a Communication with Moscow

Architectural Monuments • Other places

The first Rigo-Orlovskaya railway branch appeared in Smolensk in 1868. Two years later, the city got a communication with Moscow. However, the first neoclassical building of Smolensk railway station has not survived to this day.

Today's neo-classical building, typical for the Soviet times, was built in the early 50's of the XX century. The symmetrical facade of the station with two turrets on each side, a recessed arc above the entrance and a colonnade faces the spacious Vokzalnaya Square. The building is decorated with stucco, semi-columns and decorative details. The interiors with high arches and powerful columns contain art reproductions of works by Serov, Shishkin and other Russian painters. The Railway Station Smolensk underwent a global reconstruction in 2006. As a result, several waiting rooms, a cafe, storage rooms and 11 ticket offices appeared there.
