The mansion is part of a complex of historic buildings in the Khitrovka area and is recognized as a cultural heritage site. In the early 17th century, this area was part of a trading zone known for its craftsmen and markets. Later, due to the illegal labor exchange operating here, Khitrovka began to attract representatives of less privileged social groups, including homeless individuals and wage laborers. After the October Revolution of 1917, the city government took measures to combat crime, demolishing the market and constructing a school in its place. Many of the surrounding buildings were renovated or reconstructed. New residential buildings, parks, and squares emerged. Today, Khitrovka combines old and new architectural styles, offering cozy cafes, antique shops, art galleries, and theaters.
