The building of the former city mansion at 211 Pushkin Street is considered one of the best examples of Belarusian residential architecture of the early 20th century.
The building of the former city mansion stands on a rubble foundation and has a four-pitched metal roof. Its architecture combines elements of classicism, Empire style and Art Nouveau.
The L-shaped building consists of one brick floor. The main facade, characterized by a symmetrical composition, is richly decorated with decorative elements and an abundance of stucco decorations. The central entrance is marked by a portico with two columns and an attic. The risalites at the edges of the building are decorated with stucco masks. The facade is decorated with the date of construction – "1912".
The interior layout is corridor-enfilade. Stucco adorns the arched opening of the main lobby. The semicircular projection of the central hall faces the courtyard. Inside, six stoves and fireplaces decorated with colored tiles with ornaments have been preserved.
In 1926, a maternity hospital was opened in the mansion, and then, in the 80s, a kindergarten. In the post-war years, the health department of the Bobruisk City Executive Committee was located here.
Currently, the building houses the representative office of the National Olympic Committee of Belarus and the Museum of Olympic Glory.
Modern architects call this mansion one of the best examples of Belarusian residential architecture of the early 20th century. Six preserved tiled stoves decorated with caryatids and motifs of nature are also of particular value here.
