The metro station "Baumanskaya" (Moscow) Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya (blue line) is located in the east of the city center in the Basmanny district. This Moscow region has an interesting history and today is one of the centers of business and cultural activity. There are many industrial enterprises, scientific organizations, cultural sites.
History of the area
In the 17th century, there was a German settlement, where Peter I often visited. Here he met his future associates Gordon and Lefort. The Moskovsky district, which is located near the Baumanskaya metro station, is called Lefortovo. A lot has been written about the romance of Peter I with the charming Anna Mons, which developed in the German Quarter. After the Patriotic War of 1812, the settlement was settled mainly by petty bourgeois and merchants. The street became known as German. In 1918, it was renamed Baumanskaya in memory of the revolutionary N. E. Bauman, who was killed here in 1905
Not far from the Baumanskaya metro station is the famous Epiphany Cathedral in Yelokhovo. Spartakovskaya street, where it is located, used to be called Yelokhovskaya. The temple was built in 1853 and never closed. There are rumors among the parishioners that it was supposed to be closed on June 22, 1941, but the outbreak of war prevented this. In the same area are the Moscow Puppet Theater, the drama theater "Modern" (it occupies a building built in 1911, which used to be the Grain Exchange).
On Baumanskaya street is the famous technical university of Moscow State Technical University. Bauman. This oldest educational institution in Russia has existed since 1826 and during its work has brought up many talented and bright scientists and engineers.
Subway station
The construction of a section of this line began in 1938, and by 1941 70% of the work had been completed. After the start of the Great Patriotic War, it was suspended, and the built tunnels were used as bomb shelters.
In 1943, construction was continued, and on January 18, 1944, the station started working. The ground vestibule is a portal with granite columns and relief images. The three-leaf pylon deep station is located at a depth of 32.5 m. The station was designed by B. Iofan. In the niches there are sculptures by V. A. Andreev, who did not live to see the completion of his work. In 1970, the plaster sculptures were replaced by their bronze counterparts.
In 2015, the station was closed for renovation. The oldest ones at that time were replaced thereworking escalators to new type escalators. Instead of three, four lifts are now operating.
Bauman Alliance
In D. Glukhovsky's dystopia "Metro-2033" a small state is described - the Bauman alliance. It is peaceful but well armed. He is engaged in the repair and production of equipment and weapons at the Baumanskaya metro station (Moscow). The stretch between Baumanskaya and Elektrozavodskaya is inhabited by amazing lizards that can copy human laughter and paralyze their victims.
