Muruzi House is a notable apartment building – a former revenue house in central Saint Petersburg, Russia, constructed in 1874-1877 by architects Aleksey Serebryakov and Pyotr Shestov [ru] for count Alexander Dmitrievich Mourouzis (Muruzi) on the land that once belonged to Nikolai Rezanov.[1] The interiors were designed by Nikolai Sultanov [ru].[2]
From 1890 until the Revolution the house was owned by Lieutenant General Oskar Rein.[3]
It is noteworthy for its neo-Moorish architecture and as a place of residence or work of a number of Russian-language literary persons:[4] for example, in 1955–1972 Russian poet Joseph Brodsky resided in the Muruzi house, nowadays his memorial museum is opened at his former apartment.[5] Before him residents included the early 20 century family of authors Zinaida Gippius and Dmitry Merezhkovskiy and later a Soviet and modern Russia prose writer Daniil Granin;[6] Poets' House opened here in 1920 under Nikolay Gumilyov, and Korney Chukovskiy opened a studio for teaching young literary translators under the post-revolutionary publishing project Vsemirnaya literatura [ru] ("World Literature").[7]
