Uritsky Street

Uritsky Street (formerly Andreevskaya) begins from Dzerzhinsky Street (formerly Bolshaya Soldatskaya), crosses Sacco and Vanzetti Streets (formerly Volokhovskaya), Gagarin (Company) and ends with Proletarian Strelka Street (formerly Pyatnitskaya Strelka). The street was so named after the Church of St. Andrew the First-Called.

The wooden St. Andrew’s Apostolic Church was built in 1646. The documents call the builder of the church of stone works the journeyman Cornelius Perevoloka. In 1749, a side chapel was consecrated in the name of Abraham the Recluse, and in 1755 in the name of Andrew the First-Called. In 1885, the St. Andrew’s Apostolic Parish School was opened.

The staff of the church included a priest and a psalmist. Priests Simeon Vasiliev, Simeon Lavrentiev, John Danilov, John Sentyashev, Vyacheslav Glubokovsky, Andrey Kataev have served in the church over the years.

Since the parish of St. Andrew’s Church in ancient Tobolsk was the furthest and the poorest, one-story wooden houses prevailed on the street. The two-storey houses belonged to Tobolsk philistines Tatiana Ivanovna Chuklina (Andreevskaya str., 3) and Masa Minovna Krutkina (Andreevskaya str., 5).

In the early years of Soviet power, the street received a new name — the name of the revolutionary Uritsky. Moses Solomonovich Uritsky (pseudonym Boretsky) is a Russian and Soviet revolutionary and political figure, first of all, who gained fame after his appointment as chairman of the Petrograd Cheka. He was killed on August 30, 1918 by Leonid Kannegiser.

In its historical layout, the street has survived to our time, although the old wooden houses have not survived, for example, there are not even photos of the house on Uritsky Street, 27.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, a Tobolsk philistine, Pyotr Yemelyanovich Makovetsky, lived at the address Andreevskaya Street, 7. The current building was built in 1962. The house is plastered and painted. The building is decorated with platbands with overhead and sawn carving with geometric ornament in the form of squares and rhombuses.

The building of a wooden one — story house was built in the middle of the twentieth century. The house has three large rooms. The house is sheathed in wood and painted in two colors. A large enclosed veranda is attached to the house on the east side. The roof of the house is rebuilt, covered with slate. The building is decorated with platbands with overhead carvings with geometric ornaments in the form of triangles and rhombuses.

At the beginning of the twentieth century the house belonged to the heirs of the Tobolsk philistine Nikolaev. Little remains of the original house. The house has been rebuilt. The modern building dates back to the middle of the twentieth century. The house is decorated with platbands with a simple ornament.

At the beginning of the twentieth century there was a wooden house on this place, belonging to the heirs of the Tobolsk philistine Sozonov.
