Goldenberg House

It is hard to miss on Komsomolska Street the distinctive architecture of building no. 21, the so-called Goldenberg House. It stands out clearly among the existing buildings of the ensemble of Pokrovska Square in Kherson. The building’s architecture is in an eclectic style. Its decoration is done in Moorish and Romanesque styles, which gives the facades greater expressiveness.

Previously, at the beginning of the 20th century, this building belonged to merchant Goldenberg. In 1911, the house became the property of the International Bank of St. Petersburg. Today it is a monument of architecture and urban planning. It houses the Kherson Regional Directorate of the State Treasury of Ukraine. To this day, there is practically no information left either about Goldenberg or about the building itself, yet such architecture truly deserves tourists’ attention.
