In this house in 1919, the outstanding Russian thinker Vasily Vasilievich Rozanov passed away from hunger, cold, and emotional turmoil.

"To the reader, if he is a friend. In this terrible, shocking year, I received help from many people, both acquaintances and complete strangers. By some instinct of the heart, they supported me with money and food. I cannot hide that without this help, I would not have survived this year. For this, I feel immense gratitude, and tears have often welled up in my eyes and soul. 'Someone remembers, someone thinks, someone guessed.' I am tired. I cannot. A couple of handfuls of flour, a couple of handfuls of grains, five hard-boiled eggs often saved my day. Preserve, reader, your writer, and in the last days of my life, something conclusive appears to me. V. R. Sergiev Posad, Moscow Province, Krasyukovka, Polevaya Street, the house of priest Belyaev."
