Title of the article | Architectural and planning features of religious buildings at hospitals in large cities of Russia in the second half of the XVIII – early XX centuries |
Abstract. | Religious buildings at hospitals began to appear simultaneously with the beginning of the construction of hospitals. The study of these facilities is relevant, since this layer of architectural heritage has not been sufficiently studied to date. The subject of the study is the spatial planning structure of religious buildings, such as house churches, chapels and churches at hospitals in large cities of the Russian Empire of the pre-revolutionary period. The research methodology includes the study of historical and archival documents, publications by Russian and foreign authors, generalization and systematization of information on the facilities under consideration, as well as the performance of the comparative analysis of spatial planning and stylistic solutions. The purpose of the work is to identify the architectural and planning features of religious buildings at hospitals in large cities of Russia, as well as to determine the prerequisites for their transformation in the context of time. The research objectives are to study the location of chapels and churches in the structure of hospitals and hospital complexes in large cities of Russia, including Kazan; to compare architectural, planning and stylistic solutions of the churches and chapels under consideration, and to identify their features. Research results: The characteristic methods of placing churches in the structure of hospital buildings and their complexes have been identified. The systematization of religious sites at hospitals and their features in terms of architectural, planning and stylistic solutions in the late 18th - early 20th centuries has been carried out. The importance for the architectural and construction industry consists in studying a previously unresolved problem, in identifying architectural and planning features of religious buildings on the territory of hospital complexes of the period under consideration. |
