On Kirova Street, the 49th house stands out as the most remarkable from an architectural perspective. This magnificent building belonged to merchant Solnyshkin in the 19th century and is now protected by the state as a monument of architecture.

Before the early 20th century, there was a small two-story building on this site, which was not particularly beautiful. Merchant Solnyshkin lived here with his second wife. After his death, Elizaveta Solnyshkina decided to completely rebuild the house and hired architect Alexei Yakovlev, known for the Drama Theater project. Under his guidance, a new merchant mansion was constructed. Over the past hundred years, some decorative elements have been lost. For example, the building was adorned with a massive metal dome that shone brightly in the sun. The interior of the house has also changed. The rooms were so spacious that Elizaveta Solnyshkina held balls here. In 1906, a charity evening took place in the house to support one of the children's shelters, and the funds raised were directed to help orphans.

Since 1913, the house was owned by the Solnyshkins' son, Pavel, who rented part of the premises to the garrison Assembly, where officers held social events. After the revolution, the building was transferred to the third school.
