Komsomolskaya ring line. Station "Komsomolskaya" of the Circle Line. Crossing to the Sokolnicheskaya line

The appearance of the Museum of the Decembrists is associated with a unique case: a potential heir saved the destroyed city estate on Staraya Basmannaya. Although Russian history did not develop in the most successful way for the ancestors of Muravyov-Apostol, the Swiss businessman and Russian nobleman considers the estate to be his ancestral home. Christopher Muravyov-Apostol restored it with his own money and established a museum in it. For this unprecedented step, he received - the first in Moscow - the right to pay a symbolic price per year for renting premises: a ruble per square meter. The estate is a house in the style of Moscow classicism. Ground floor with an area of ​​298 sq. m with vaulted ceilings and plank floors reproduces the interior of the 18th century. There is a lecture hall here. A solid staircase leads to the second - front - floor, where there is an entrance hall, a pantry, an office, a bedroom, two living rooms, a ballroom and a spacious hall. It is here that exhibitions and other cultural events are held: exhibits from the Christie's auction house were shown here; this same space has become one of the venues for the Photobiennale. There is no permanent exhibition in the museum yet.


Unexpectedly, great interest in the blog was aroused by photographs of Moscow metro stations. However, why is it unexpected ... Not all of those who came across my blog on the Internet were in Moscow. And the fame of the beauty of the Moscow metro spread throughout the world. I will not take pictures of all the Moscow metro stations, but I will show you a few more that I like.

Very beautiful, simply luxurious station of the Komsomolskaya ring line of the Moscow metro.

The station was opened on January 30, 1952. This is the most spacious columnar station of the Moscow metro. The central hall is 190 meters long and 11 meters wide. ceiling height 9 meters.

Komsomolskaya ring station is just a real palace, in the design of which several styles were combined at once. Today this mixture of styles is called the Stalinist Empire style. The project of the station was developed by a group of architects, the decor idea was taken from the speech of JV Stalin at the parade on November 7, 1941: “The war that you are waging is a war of liberation, a just war. May the courageous image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov - inspire you in this war! Let the victorious banner of the great Lenin overshadow you! "

68 octahedral marble columns are installed with a pitch of 5.6 meters. The ceiling of the station is decorated with eight mosaic panels made of smalt and valuable ornamental stones according to the sketches of the artist P.D. Korin. The panels are dedicated to the struggle of the Russian people for independence. Also, the ceiling is decorated with images of various military attributes and luxurious chandeliers. All this is generously bordered with stucco molding.

According to the architects' plan, the Komsomolskaya station, where guests of the capital arrive at three railway stations, should make an indelible first impression of Moscow. It really makes an impression!

There is a passage from the circular line to Sokolnicheskaya, which is also worthy of being photographed.

On the wall of the escalator hall there is a mosaic depicting the Order of Victory, also made according to the sketch of the artist P.D. Korin.

I go up a four-belt escalator to the Komsomolskaya-radial station. This station is also interestingly decorated in its own way, but there are always so many people here that no one pays attention to all this ...

The station "Komsomolskaya" of the Circle Line is rightfully considered one of the most beautiful stations of the Moscow metro. In addition, it is unique in terms of its constructive solution.

With some reservations, we can say that its project is a further development of the first column stations of the Moscow metro - Mayakovskaya and Paveletskaya Zamoskvoretskaya lines.

Before talking about Komsomolskaya, I want to briefly highlight the history of the Moscow and St. Petersburg column stations.

The first deep column station in Moscow, in the USSR and in the world in general was Mayakovskaya, opened on September 11, 1938. It was very daring. In general, despite the excellent architectural solution, it turned out to be very difficult and time-consuming to build.

Taking into account all the difficulties of building such a column station, the engineers have developed a more economical project - Paveletskaya Zamoskvoretskaya line. But alas, the war began, and its course made its own adjustments to the current appearance of the station. It was opened on November 20, 1943 in a highly simplified form: without a central hall and only with a pylon part (in fact, a small distribution hall) near the exit to the city. The fact is that all the metal structures of the column-run complex remained in Dnepropetrovsk, captured by the Germans.

And only after the war, as a result of a complex reconstruction, which lasted almost 10 years without interrupting the movement of trains and passengers, it was converted from a two-hall into a column that we see now. The first stage of the reconstruction was opened on February 21, 1953, and all the work was finally completed only by April 1959! And in memory of the original project, we were left with an old section near the exit to the station.

The next convoy station was the Kurskaya Circle Line, opened on January 1, 1950. The project, which stood alone, turned out to be very difficult and time-consuming to build, and after that such column stations were no longer built.

For the first stage of the Leningrad metro, two unique projects of the column station were developed. The first is based on the experience of the already built Mayakovskaya and Paveletskaya. Two stations were built along it: "Technological Institute" and "Baltiyskaya". According to the second project, the Kirovsky Zavod station was built. What is most interesting, this project, most likely, served as the basis for the development of the Moscow column station, and St. Petersburg residents eventually went their own way, developing their own type.

A common drawback of all these projects (except for "Kursk" and "Kirovsky Zavod") is the presence in the vault of the middle hall of a spacer in one form or another. The need for its device is caused by the difference between the spacing of the middle and side tunnels at the existing size of their spans.

To solve this problem, a project was developed for a station with an increased middle vault span. Here, thanks to the adopted ratio of the spans of the middle and extreme tunnels, it was possible to achieve a balance of the spacing and to abandon the upper spacers in the middle vault. According to this project, as you may have guessed, the Komsomolskaya station of the Circle Line was built.

This is where the history of the unique column stations, made according to individual projects, ended. Painfully, they turned out to be expensive and laborious in construction.

They returned to the column stations almost 20 years later, when Kitay-Gorod was developed and built. It was a breakthrough in the field of construction, and this project has successfully survived to this day (for example, Dostoevskaya and Trubnaya are improved stations of this type). But this is all beyond the scope of this story. Maybe I will somehow tell the story of various design types of stations, but for now, let's get back to Komsomolskaya-Koltsevaya.

1. This is a deep column station, built according to an individual project. The lining of the station is made of cast-iron tubing and consists of two open rings of track tunnels with an outer diameter of 9.5 m and an elevated middle vault with a circular outline with a diameter of 11.5 m. In the lower part of the middle tunnel, a powerful reinforced concrete spacer plate 1 m thick is provided, column foundations.


Tunnels and subways / Ed. Dr. tech. Sciences, prof. V.G. Khrapova. - M .: Transport, 1989.

2. The width of the side platforms (from the edge of the platform to the axis of the column) is taken as 2.8 m, and the span of the middle hall between the axes of the columns is 11 m. the lining of the side tunnels at the level of the support tubing is equipped with metal spacers made of I-beams No. 36.


Limanov Yu.A. Subways. - M .: Transport, 1971.

3. The increase in the span of the middle hall and the elimination of the upper struts made it possible to significantly increase the volume and height of the middle hall, which favorably influenced the quality of the architectural design of the station.

4. The metal structure of the station consists of a two-stage upper girder, columns and shoes. The girders in the static relation are two-cantilever beams with cantilever lengths equal to half the span, resting on box-section columns with a pitch of 4.5 m along the length of the station. The weight of one section of metal structure 4.5 m long is 52.96 tons, and the total weight for the entire station is about 3 300 tons. In the photo you can see the process of rock mining in the core of the middle hall. Considering the volume, an excavator was installed at the station. You can also see the entire column-run complex in all its glory. And on the left, in the background, an unassembled side tunnel is visible. In general, the construction process was no different from.

5. Some work in the middle hall. In the side hall, the strut is clearly visible from above.

6. According to one of the legends, the initial design of the station was with very thick columns after finishing. They say that the engineer almost pounced on the architect with fists, they say, I spent so much time developing the station to make the columns as thin as possible, and you hid it all in the cladding. As a result, the architect redesigned the project and the cladding is now pressed against the column as much as possible.

19. This station evokes very strange and contradictory emotions for me. I consider it a masterpiece in terms of design, but from an architectural point of view, it crushes. Although the taste and color, of course.

21. The size of the slope is amazing. If I am not mistaken, then the same diameter was used in the construction of the interchange between Prospekt Mira stations. Then they reduced the distance between the cars and were able to place 4 belts in a tunnel with a diameter of 8.8 m.

24. Tricky organization of travel under the station track. One large and two small ones on the sides.

25. The design of the station is dedicated to the theme of the struggle of the Russian people for independence. The ceiling of the station is decorated with eight mosaic panels of smalt and precious stones. Six of them depict Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov, Soviet soldiers and officers at the walls of the Reichstag. Their author is the artist P. D. Korin.

26. But the design of the station was censored after the debunking of the personality cult of Stalin. About it at home moscowhite : “This is the most interesting story. Initially, the last two mosaic panels, "Presenting the Guards Banner" and "Victory Parade", made by the great artist Pavel Korin, looked like this: the first of them depicts Stalin passing the banner to a soldier (behind the Generalissimo's back are his closest associates: Molotov, Beria, Kaganovich ), and on the second - the same persons from the party elite lined up on the podium of the Mausoleum, at the foot of which fascist banners were thrown. After Comrade Beria lost confidence, and Comrade Malenkov kicked him (a real rhyme of those times, a friend told me, for whom my grandfather once worked in the NKVD), his glasses were unceremoniously removed from the Korin panels. Then it was the turn of Molotov and other faithful falcons. In 1963, the time came for global changes: instead of "Presenting the Guards Banner" appeared "Lenin's Speech to the Red Guards Going to the Front", and the "Victory Parade" turned into the "Triumph of Victory". Korin, who was instructed to prepare new sketches for the panel, made this composition so that it included as many fragments of the previous "Parade" as possible. The entire Stalinist Politburo simply disappeared from the picture (the tribune of the Mausoleum was now empty), and an allegorical figure appeared in the foreground: the Motherland with a palm branch of the world and a hammer and sickle.


Mosaic panels in separate photographs: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight.

“As you know, Korin's mosaic compositions on Komsomolskaya are linked by a single concept - they are a literal visualization of Stalin's speech, delivered on November 7, 1941:“ The war you are waging is a war of liberation, a just war. May the courageous image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov - inspire you in this war! Let the victorious banner of the great Lenin overshadow you! " For those proletarians who do not stick to artistic metaphors, the Generalissimo's speech was carved on a marble board that hung to the right of the stairs. Now only crookedly smeared holes are left of it. "

27. In triangular figured frames, resting on the base of the vault and rising by a quarter of its arc, military attributes are depicted - banners and weapons (shields, helmets, swords, squeaks, muskets, broadswords). The authors of these images are S. M. Kazakov and A. M. Sergeev.


Two more ornaments: one and two.

28. In my opinion, the station is not lucky in that it is located on the square of three stations, although it was specially built for a large passenger traffic. Now it has grown to 110 thousand people and all the beauty of the station is simply lost against this background.

34. The purpose of the niches around the ladder remains a mystery. In the right niche there was a sign with Stalin's speech. Now there is just a commemorative plaque about the station. And in the left, which can be seen in the photo, there was nothing.

Station of the Circle Line of the Moscow Metro.

History

The first metro station near Leningradsky and railway stations was the Komsomolskaya station of the Kirovsko-Frunzenskaya (Sokolnicheskaya) line, opened in 1935 as part of the first stage of the metro.

The original plans of the Moscow metro did not include the Circle Line. Instead, it was planned to build "diametrical" lines with transfers in the city center. The first project of the Circle Line appeared in 1934. Then it was planned to build this line under the Garden Ring with 17 stations.

USSR Post, S. Pomansky, CC BY-SA 3.0

According to the 1938 project, it was planned to build a line much farther from the center than it was built later. The planned stations were Usachevskaya, Kaluzhskaya Zastava, Serpukhovskaya Zastava, Stalin Plant, Ostapovo, Hammer and Sickle Plant, Lefortovo, Spartakovskaya, Krasnoselskaya, Rzhevsky Vokzal, Savelovsky Station, Dynamo, Krasnopresnenskaya Zastava, Kievskaya.

In 1941, the project of the Circle Line was changed. Now it was planned to build it closer to the center. In 1943, a decision was made on the extraordinary construction of the Circle Line along the current route in order to unload the transfer hub Okhotny Ryad - Sverdlov Square - Revolution Square.

The circular line has become the fourth stage of construction. In 1947, it was planned to commission the line in four sections: "Central Park of Culture and Leisure" - "Kurskaya", "Kurskaya" - "Komsomolskaya", "Komsomolskaya" - "Belorusskaya" (then it was merged with the second section) and "Belorusskaya" - " Central Park of Culture and Leisure ".

The first section, "Park Kultury" - "Kurskaya", was opened on January 1, 1950, the second, "Kurskaya" - "Belorusskaya", - on January 30, 1952, and the third, "Belorusskaya" - "Park Kultury", closing the line to ring, - March 14, 1954. It was originally planned to build three lobbies for Komsomolskaya, but only one was built. The transition to the Sokolnicheskaya line opened together with the station.

Architecture and decoration

Lobby

At the northern end of the station there is a staircase leading to a small domed entrance hall. In the dome of the vault, decorated with gold smalt, there is a red five-pointed star with golden rays diverging in all directions. This mosaic decoration did not appear until the 1960s. A massive multi-arm chandelier is suspended in the center of the entrance hall.

A long and wide corridor leads from the entrance hall to the escalator tunnel. The escalator tunnel, in turn, leads to the ground lobby, common to both stations of the node. This lobby has an octagonal volume under a large dome.

The dome is decorated with stucco and figured bas-reliefs of trumpeting buglers (by G.I.Motovilov). Along the axis of the dome are two hanging chandeliers in the form of church chandeliers, in all corners there are large floor lamps. The walls are clad in light beige marble.

The lobby unites the top of two escalator tunnels of two stations, the entrance from Komsomolskaya Square, exit to the square between Yaroslavsky and Leningradsky stations and the entrance from the underground lobby with corridors from both of these stations.

This entire architectural ensemble is located inside the street pavilion. It is a large two-story building with a cross in shape with two six-column porticos on the side of Komsomolskaya Square and with access to the platforms of the Leningradsky and Yaroslavsky stations from the opposite side.

From it you can also go to the Kalanchevskaya platform of the Kursk direction of the Moscow railway. Since November 2007, the entrance through the front doors of the pavilion has been closed and is through an underground passage under Komsomolskaya Square. The inner vault of the lobby protrudes outward with a large gray dome. This dome is crowned with a tall spire with a five-pointed star. The star depicts a hammer and sickle.

Station halls

A prefabricated cast-iron lining is used in the construction, a monolithic plate is used as a tray. The length of the landing hall is 190 meters, the width of the central nave is 11 m (instead of 8 m typical for stations of this design), the height of the hall is 9 m (instead of the typical 5.5 m).

According to the last two indicators, this station is the largest of the column stations of the Moscow metro. In 1952, together with P. D. Korin, the architect A. V. Shchusev was posthumously awarded the Stalin Prize of the second degree for 1951 for the architecture of the station.

Architecturally, the station "Komsomolskaya" is the apotheosis of the Stalinist Empire style, distinguished by its grandeur, pomp, a combination of elements of classicism, Empire style and Moscow Baroque. One of the authors of the project, A. Yu. Zabolotnaya, wrote that the station was conceived as one of the busiest transport hubs in the city and as a kind of gateway to Moscow. These "gates" were supposed to form the first impressions of Moscow.

There are 68 octagonal columns at the station (the pitch is 5.6 meters). The arcades, which include two rows of columns, are connected by graceful arches. They carry common entablatures with cornices that extend along the entire length of the station. The foundations of the vaults of the central and lateral halls rest on the cornices. The vault of the central hall is one and a half times higher than the side ones.

The triumph of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War is the leading theme of the station's interior architecture. The greatness of this patriotic theme is reflected in the grandiose scope of the spatial construction of the underground hall, in the richness of the decoration, in the brightness of its color and light solutions. The ceiling of the station is decorated with eight mosaic panels of smalt and precious stones. They are a visualization of J.V. Stalin's speech delivered at the parade on November 7, 1941:

“The war you are waging is a war of liberation, a just war. Let the courageous image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dimitri Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dimitri Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov - inspire you in this war! Let the victorious banner of the great Lenin overshadow you! .. "

I. V. Stalin

The vault is decorated with white stucco ornament. At the foot of the vault there was a row of gilded bas-relief cartouches on a crimson-red background, made according to the models of sculptors S.V. Kazakov and A.M. Sergeev on the theme "Russian weapons", later replaced by mosaics. At the same time, the dome of the entrance hall in front of the escalator corridor was also laid out with mosaics. This statement of Stalin was carved on a marble board installed at the entrance to the platform hall.


Zac allan, Public Domain

Six mosaics depict Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov, Soviet soldiers and officers at the walls of the Reichstag. Their author is the artist P. D. Korin. Two more panels depicting JV Stalin ("Victory Parade" and "Presentation of the Guards Banner") were replaced after the debunking of the personality cult of Stalin in 1963. Prior to that, these panels were repeatedly "corrected" with the removal of the disgraced leaders.

Initially, the panel "Presenting the Guards Banner" depicted Stalin passing the banner to a soldier, and behind him - V. M. Molotov, L. P. Beria, L. M. Kaganovich. The panel "Victory Parade" depicted the same people on the podium of the Mausoleum, at the foot of which the Nazi banners were thrown. New panels depict Lenin's performance in front of the Red Guards and the Motherland against the background of the Kremlin's Spasskaya Tower. The panel was reworked by Korin himself.

The yellow ceiling is also decorated with mosaic inserts and stucco moldings. The hall is illuminated by massive multi-track chandeliers hanging between the panels; platforms are lit by smaller chandeliers.

The columns are decorated with marble capitals and trimmed with light Uzbek gazgan marble, like the walls of the station. The floor is paved with crimson-red Kuznechnin (Kaarlakhtinsky) granite. The track platforms are finished with red Kapustinsky and pink-red Klyosovsky granite. A bust of V.I.Lenin is installed in the dead-end end of the hall.

Crossing to the Sokolnicheskaya line

The transition begins in the middle of the hall. There are two pairs of escalators leading down into a spacious hall, illuminated by a small chandelier and wall sconces. Then, through a long, curved corridor below the station, the passenger enters the escalator hall.

On the wall there is a Florentine mosaic based on P. D. Korin's sketches depicting the Order of Victory against a background of red banners and weapons, which are framed by a laurel wreath entwined with a St. George ribbon. A large four-belt escalator leads from the hall. Upstairs there is an underground circular column hall with an exit to the southern end of the Komsomolskaya Sokolnicheskaya line. On the other side of the circular columned hall is the exit to the Kazansky railway station.

Station in culture

"Komsomolskaya" is mentioned in the book by L. I. Lagin "Old Man Hottabych", published in 1955. The 1938 edition mentions the Kievsky Vokzal station instead of the then non-existent Komsomolskaya.
