Suvorov's House

Architecture

The building of the provincial government, where in 1792-1794 lived and worked the commander Oleksandr Suvorov, who oversaw the completion of the construction of the Kherson fortress. Under the command of General Anshef, the strengthening of the approaches to the fortress and the defense of the Kinburn district were carried out.

Now Suvorov's building houses shops and offices. A memorial plaque hangs on the building, on the left is a bas-relief of the work of Kherson sculptor Ivan Bilokur "Soldiers of Suvorov in battle".

At the beginning of the Suvorov pedestrian street, a monument to the commander was erected, cast in 1904 by master Mykola Rukavyshnikov. In 2022, during the occupation of Kherson by Russian troops during the Russian-Ukrainian war, on the eve of the retreat from the city as a result of a successful counteroffensive operation by the Ukrainian army, the Russian occupiers dismantled the monument and took it out of the city.
