Last crawled date: 4 years, 4 months ago

The State Kremlin Palace, formerly and unofficially still better known as the Kremlin Palace of Congresses, is a large modern building inside the Moscow Kremlin. The building was built under personal insistence of Nikita Khruschev as a modern arena for Communist Party meetings. Although the architecture of the projected building contrasted sharply with the historic milieu, building work started in 1959. The structure was opened along with the 22nd Congress of the CPSU on October 17, 1961. In 1962 the architects of the project, headed by M.Posokhin were awarded the Lenin Prize for their work. #capital #government #Hauptstadt #Kreml #Kremlin #Medvedev #Medwedew #Moscou #Moscow #Moskau #open_source #President #Russia #Russie #Russland #Кремль #Медведев #Москвы #Россия
