History of Tupikov's house

The mansion appeared at the intersection of the street of Uktus and Main Avenue in 1890. For his family he built a local gold miner Tupikov Stepan under the project of Yekaterinburg architect Yulia Dyutela. Later, a stone wing was added to the house, a part of the territory behind the house where a small garden was built was fenced off with a forged fence.

Initially, the house was one-storey, its interior decorated the owners and guests with luxury: a parquet of precious woods decorated each room with an individual design, a large fireplace room, cozy offices, a rich environment. Mr. Tupikov did not skimp on spending, but he did not live long in the house.

Mrs. Tupikova

After the death of the owner, his widow lived in the house, and a considerable inheritance, and the absence of children, could count on her to remarry. But the devout woman was a follower of the Old Believer Orthodox tradition and spent the rest of her life praying. The legend has survived, according to which secret passages under the Voznesenskaya Gorka, the Kharitonov-Rastorguev estate, were led from a small secret room in the basement where its chapel was located. And allegedly there hid her wealth the inconsolable widow, and till now the treasure has not been found. Another joy of the hostess was the arrangement of the Christmas tree in the mansion for children, the celebration was held every year and was one of the favorite among the townspeople.
