  About the Palace of Pioneers on Sparrow Mountains You can say exactly one thing: this is the best place of Moscow, and at the same time - the place is not at all Moscow. It is not clear how it exists in this city is incomprehensible how it exists at this time. Asymmetric green area SKOS dissected by a regular grid of asphalt tracks. On the one hand, a fifty-meter flagpole made of stainless steel. On the other hand, an elongated building with a observatory dome and a visor on the disappearing columns. In the center - like a glass of a typical Soviet cinema. On the facades, modernist panels, and everything is very literally: pioneers, bonfires, pipes, Lenin - where without him. For those connected in one complex, the buildings grow ash and nuts. Quietly, there are no cars, schoolchildren walk along the tracks, "even late in the fall of 2014, they reign here in the hope of the 1960s.

  Palace of Pioneers began to build immediately after the VI World Festival of Youth and Students of 1957, and opened on June 1, 1962 - before the publication of the "one day Ivan Denisovich" remained half a year, and the tanks in Prague are eternity. At the parade of the pioneers, the red ribbon of the new building cut Nikita Khrushchev himself. Palace of Pioneers is a physical embodiment of thaw and all the best, which was in the Soviet Union. The country grew the first post-war generation, which was not necessary to fight for his existence. And in order to satisfy their needs in creativity, for the first time in Soviet history for children, the place of the eternal holiday was created.

  The construction of the complex has become an event in the architectural life of the USSR: several concert and theatrical halls, swimming pools, a winter garden, observatory and exhibition spaces were combined in one extended building. The competition won young and unknown architects under the guidance of Igor Alexandrovich Pokrovsky (the future author of the development of Zelenograd) - all in the team from seven people were not 35 years old. The project became their way to life: when in 1967 the State Prize of the RSFSR in the field of architecture was established, the creators of the Palace of Pioneers were first received.

  The decision of the Pokrovsky team was radically different from everything that was before: these are very light, elegant and well-inscribed in the natural environment of the building combined with a common concise and clear style - the full opposite of the excessive lateral neoclassic. Despite the half-century anniversary and the need for repair, they now look fresh, modern and varied. True, the architects never managed to bring everything conceived to the end: Already in 1963, financing the continuation of construction turned.

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  The Palace of Pioneers on Sparrow Mountains does not boil down to one area or a modernist ensemble fulfilled with an indisputable taste. He is much larger than his constituent, and, falling into this space, you can feel the touch to sacral. Architecture is not only bricks, glass and reinforced concrete. Architecture always expresses the ideology and mood of society: on the difference between the spacious new Arbat and the cumbersome Avenue of Academician Sakharov, it is easy to present the difference between the beginning and the end of the Brezhnev era. Palace of Pioneers - Living Utopia From the time when people believed that he would soon submit themselves thermonuclear synthesis, they would create a fair society and would fly to distant planets on a brilliant rocket. And in this his paradox.

  This complex lives in a parallel reality - by the end of the XX century, humanity experienced a crisis of faith in progress. No one else is more interested in a bright future: why to master the real space, if you can discuss cosmic adventures in the new film Christopher Nolan? And even more - the hope that will continue to be better, replaced by fear of change and the desire to breathe out from the future, to forget about his existence and return to the past or at least leave everything as it is. But, being on the sparrow mountains, you do not feel this former: Progress is great, and the future cannot but be beautiful. Because if it is not beautiful, then why live?

  On the square near the Palace of Pioneers it is easy to believe that everything will be fine. At least therefore in late autumn of 2014 is the best place for Moscow.

  Minister of Education Moscow I.I. Kalina systematically folds free curriculum for children in order to put the premises of the Poland of Pioneers for rent, and the director of the Palace declares many families: "His educational resource is not for all".

  "The situation in the Poland of Pioneers on Sparrow Mountains worsens every day. Not getting the opportunity to eliminate the palace in 2012 due to mass protests Muscovites , Minister of Education Moscow I.I. Kalina systematically folds free curricula for children in order to put the premises of the Palace for rent. The mouth of the director of the Palace A.A. Shashkova, the Moscow Department of Education said to large parents: "The Palace is an elite educational institution. His educational resource is not for everyone. " Officials mercilessly destroy the unique methodological base of the palace, conduct massive dismissal of employees, including those who dismiss teachers in the midst of the school year, "says Anna Gennadevna Gennin in the Living Journal, with the assistance of the social movement for the preservation of the uniqueness of the Moscow Palace of Pioneers.

  Palace of Pioneers \u003d Children's Analogue of the Moscow State University + Unique Art-Educational Sector + 4 Sports Schools

  "The analogy with MSU is not accidental. Geographically, Moscow State University and Palace of Pioneers are located in one park on the sparrow mountains, and for 50 years, MSU teachers worked as part-time in the PalaceAnd precisely thanks to their participation, the palace managed to develop powerful and unique methodological schools of teaching astronomy, technical modeling, a number of biological and humanitarian disciplines, foreign languages, "the author of publication continues.

  "Here we will list only some of the names of the Palace graduates who have made a great contribution to the development of Soviet and Russian art and well-known general public. In the palace in orphanage engaged Natalia Gundarereva, Tamara Sinyavskaya, Yuri Bogatyrev, Igor Kvasha and many outstanding actors, directors, writers and other professionals of theater and cinema.

  Finally, graduates of four sports schools of the Olympic reserve for decades have brought up champions and winners of the Olympic Games and International Competitions, such as handball players Ekaterina Andryushina and Yuri Kidyaev, arrows Victor Vlasov and Alexey Alipov, Olympic swimming champion Marina Koshevaya, grandmasters Mikhail Kobalya and Arthur Yusupov. It is also very important that, thanks to the classes in the sports sector of the Palace, thousands of children for several generations had the opportunity to join civilized sports and received the most important experience in communicating in the team of peers united by common sports goals and interests. "

  Respectively, Palace is a universal educational resource visited by children from most parts of Moscow. All of the above is also directly related to the branch of the Palace - the home of the scientific and technical creativity of young people, opened in 1988 on the street. Donskaya. Initially, DTTTM was created by the staff of the Palace of Pioneers on Sparrow Mountains and all these years operated as his branch.

  Palace of Pioneers on Sparrow Mountains and Minister I.I. Kalina

  To Minister I.I. Kalina was repeatedly referred to asking to increase the transport accessibility of the palace so that the children could get to him on their own: to make a staircase from the Metro Sparrow Mountain, to start a special bus for children from the Metro University, etc. But no one responded to requests.

  But dozens of hectare of golden land in the center of Moscow, which is located the Palace Palace Palace, I.I. Kalina appreciated very high. And coming to strong emotional arousal on this occasion, immediately removed the director of the Palace of Monakhov and a number of other employees who led the work of this unique center in the most difficult financial years.

  I.I. Kalina declared the Palace "Outdated" and "not relevant" and decided to liquidate the educational center, and instead, to build a monument of landscape art in a state guarded by the state - a complex of buildings under the codenate name "School of Gymnastics Irina Wiener". By that time, the same complex of buildings was already built in the floodplain of the river Skhodlin, so no doubt in the intentions of I.I. Kalina and Irina Wiener did not have any employees of the Palace and Lyceum 1525, nor the parents of students or residents of the Gagarinsky district. After the following numerous protests, which included two rally in 2012 and 2013, the idea of \u200b\u200bthe one-time elimination of the palace and the development of its territory was left by the Department of Education and Moscow Moscow.

  However, the process of destruction of the infrastructure of the Piano Palace on Sparrow Mountains has moved from an acute phase to chronic, and in these two years a new administration of the palace in the person of the director A.A. Shashkov in close collaboration with the Department of Education managed to put a very serious damage to the educational and methodological resource of this unique children's educational center.

  

  For a simple alone, the role of the heads, methodologists and laboratory technicians is incomprehensible. Therefore, the reduction of more than half of administrative posts in the palace was carried out by the director A.A. Shashkov almost unhindered.

  The consequences of this pogrom inevitably will be inevitably in the form of a decline in the quality of educational programs in the coming years, since one teacher is not able to carry out the work carried out earlier by several employees. In addition, dismissed A.A. Shashkov, heads of laboratories and sectors, were leading experts in the respective areas and organized not only the educational process, but also contests, conferences, festivals, city and federal competitions. Not only students of the palace traditionally participated in such events, but also schoolchildren from all over Moscow, and their importance in stimulating interest in children to scientific and technical and humanitarian and artistic knowledge is simply impossible to overestimate. Thus, damage from mass layoffs of employees who held administrative positions in the palace is not limited to an educational institution, but will affect the overall level of the pedagogical process in Moscow.

  The high level of educational programs of the Palace and its branch on the street. The Don Decimals was also determined by the presence in the state of methodists, as a rule, were experienced teachers and transmitting their experience to young teachers. In addition, the technical functions for the choice and purchase of specific materials and equipment for classes were made by laboratory technicians, and usually had a special education in the relevant area. Methodists and laboratory technicians were primarily subjected to mass dismissals, and, apparently, the goal of the Department of Education is the complete abolition of the staff of methodists not only in the palace and institutions of supply, but also in secondary secondary schools. Mass reductions of methodologists and laboratory technicians are currently being carried out everywhere without any reaction of the parent public, not aware of the consequences of this "reform".

  Compared with the methodologies, the dismissal of the teaching staff is conjugate to and the administration of the palace with a somewhat great difficulty, since teachers are in public space and have the opportunity to gain active support for parents of their students. However, unfortunately, not all teachers are ready to go to confrontation with the administration of the palace, and as practice shows, it is the most "non-conflict" employees and are the main victim of the administration A.A. Shashkov, Ryano realizing the will of I.I. Kalins and other officials "reformers". In most cases, the teacher is placed in a situation where he is forced to quit on his own request, for example, due to the unreasonable decline in wages.Such dismissals are often provoked by the Palace administration directly during the school year, when suddenly children and their parents find themselves before the fact that their group is disbanded in connection with the dismissal of the teacher. Of course, such cases are a strong stress for both children and adults, but this circumstance little worries officials, not burdened by ethical and moral experiences.

  The active resistance of teachers supported by the parental public is the only way to preserve the educational structure.

  The situation with the "Russian traditions and decorative drawing" is indicative in this context, operating on the basis of the branch of the palace in Dntm (ul. Donskaya House 37) under the leadership of Victoria Anatolevna Vdova. It is important to note that in the 2013-2014 academic year, children studying at the Dnthm Isostudia became laureates and winners at least eleven different exhibitions and competitions for Russian and international levels, diploma of the Moscow Dolphic Games. Studies studios regularly enter art lyceums. Of great importance for the development of student studios, regular trips guys in creative and excursion trips in various cities of Russia, visiting exhibitions and museums in Moscow.

  Nevertheless, the Department of Education by the hands of the director of the Palace A.A. Shashkov learned in the literal sense to massacre over the team of the city, unfortunately, in the most unscrupious way involved in the conflict situation of children. The purpose of this massion was to disband the state of the city, and the mechanism is to persecute teachers in the form of endless checks, comments, reversal and disciplinary recovers carried out directly during classes. "Checking" did not embarrass the tears of babies, frightened by the offensive tone of the appeals of unfamiliar adults to their teacher, as well as a stressful requirement to "write a name". At the same time, the resulting final document is far from always consistent with the real situation during the "verification".

  Fortunately, justice teachers in the active support of parents were able to defend the rights of their students and their own rights, using all possible mechanisms for the impact on power. In particular, an open letter was sent from December 18 to the authorities of the city of Moscow, demanding to stop attacks on teachers and a petition was compiled.

  In addition, the studios teachers applied for legal support to the independent trade union "Teacher" and organized the primary cell of the trade union . As a result, administration A.A. Shashkov went to the opponent, and actually started the process of restoring the izostuddy. Nevertheless, damage is very large in the form of a reduced positions of the head of the studio, a methodologist, a laboratory assistant, a teacher-organizer, etc.

  Unfortunately, administration A.A. Shashkov, performing instructions I.I. Kalina, did not meet similar resistance to the teaching staff of a number of other Dntm units. Thus, the three most modern and sought -led directions were closed: "Digital Electronics", "Virtual Electronics", "Technical Creativity for Junior", and young erudite teachers did not "communicate" with officials and were dismissed. Also destroyed the directions "Astronomy" and "Entertaining Physics". A small theater and several groups of choreography remained from a huge music sector, while a musical ensemble, guitar, choir, vocal classes, the theater ceased to exist in the 2014 school year.

  In this very sad context, i would like to express great gratitude to those teachers who are ready to fight for the rights not only of their present, but also future students, as well as their own professional rights. In almost all such situations, the victory remains for teachers, since the parental community always supports their teachers, and this disciplines the rooted officials.

  Rental of premises and squares of the Palace - the main purpose of officials-merchant

  In August 2014, A.A. Shashkov issued an order No. 667, in essence, leading to disbanding four sports schools based in the 8th and a number of other buildings of the palace. As part of this "optimization", the time of children in the Handball section was dramatically reduced, which allowed the administration to "release" a gym for the occupation of paid adult groups. It does not exclude the possibility of transferring the children's free groups "to the balcony" of the gym, so that children do not interfere with the commerce officials to manage state property at their discretion.

  Absolutely blatant situation with the tennis court, erected on the protected area of \u200b\u200bthe palace and already twice actively and hindered renovated for two years. The fact is that there is no tennis section in the palace for children, and the creation of a similar section is not even planned, about which A.A. Shashkov announced at the meeting in October 2014. At the same time, the court is used by unknown people who arrive directly to the place of "classes" on a very impressive car price. Presumably, the cort is disposed of a high-ranking official from the Federal Ministry of Education.

  Soccer field, swimming pool, dining room and other halls and palace rooms are rented. The range of paid services for adults is expanding, and these services are actively advertised. Obviously, it is with the adoption of "adults" groups in a driving school there is a scandalous laying of fundamental "sidewalks" in the Palace Park, which was planned to be spent (probably it was spent) 18 million rubles.

  On December 7, 2016, the Moscow Palace of Pioneers at Sparrow Mountains celebrates the 80th anniversary. Over half a million young Muscovites found friends and like-minded people here, many have decided on a future profession. The site and the main archival department of Moscow recall important events from the history of this unique institution.

  The palace begins ... from home

  In 1936, in the house 6 in the stalk alley (now the town of Sloy Sloboda, near the metro station "Clean ponds") opened the Moscow City House of Pioneers and October (MHDPIO). This out-of-school institution of a wide profile knew everything, and in the surprise, it was called simply "Gord", or the "house on stops". The magazine "Department" called him "the first of the laboratories, which are created in the Soviet country to educate a new person, a cultural citizen of the socialist homeland."

  

  A beautiful mansion, where the house of the pioneers is located, to the revolution, belonged to the Vysotsky family, which owned one of the largest chain firms in Russia. Being a gymnasium, Boris Pasternak often visited: falling in love with the owner's daughter, he quickly turned from a tutor in a family friend. Then the building occupied trade unions, the central club of communication workers and the society of old Bolsheviks.

  For children, the house was re-separated from the inside, reinforcing the "merchant chamber and wealth" in the spirit of the era. This is how the historian is described by Vladimir Cabo: "It was a beautiful white Renaissance style mansion, surrounded by an old garden ... In a huge lobby, I was making a panel, depicting good-naturedly smiling Stalin with a dark-haired girl on his hands. In the middle of the Hall - Fountain; Before the new year, there was always high, all in the lights of the Christmas tree. From the hall of the door led to a large concert hall and in a buffet, decorated in the form of a grotto. I climbed the stairs first on the second floor, there was a lecture, where we were lectured on all sorts of topics and where we met with famous writers, and there was a room decorated with frescoes on the plots of folk fairy tales. Above, on the third floor, our literary studio gathered. "

  One year after the opening, 173 mugs and sections were working in the MHDPI, which attended about 3,500 children and adolescents. They had a little building, and Gorde took the neighboring mansion (house 5) under the studio of technical creativity. This building housed the office of young inventors, aircraft model and woodworking workshops, and six more laboratories - railway and water transport, communications, photo laboratory, chemical and energy. The technical direction at that time was priority, since the Soviet Union was experiencing a stormy industrialization.

  Of the children seriously prepared qualified specialists: for example, in the railway laboratory there was a valid metro station with electric locomotives, escalators and dispatch installation. Made here and the train for the miniature railway, which was planned to arrange in the garden, but prevented the war ...

  Not only technique

  Artistic creativity was actively developed: an orchestra, choir, music school, dance school, theater studio, dolls, sculptural and architectural workshops, literary and izostudia worked in the house of the pioneers. Only one pioneer ensemble of songs and dance in 1937 he had 500 participants in 1937, and in the formulation of a "fairy tale of the dead princess and seven heroes" 750 people were employed for Pushkin days!

  

  Frequent guests of the literary studio were Samuel Marshak, Agnia Barto, Lev Cassille, Arkady Gaidar, Rouvim Fraerman, Chukovsky's roots. It is not surprising that the well-known writers: Yuri Trifonov, Sergey Bajajdin and Anatoly Aleksin came out. It is proud of its graduates and theatrical studio: among them the directors Stanislav Rostotsky and Alexander Mitta, Artists Natalya Gundareva, Lyudmila Kasatkina, Igor Kvasha and Rolan Bykov. Sergei Nikonenko's actor recalls: "The spirit of kindness and commitment reigned in this house. We all loved their teachers before selflessly ... We had a common deal with them. We did not feel pile, like at school. And they, and we wanted the same thing - so that we get as much as possible. They did not believed that childhood is a transitional period to the real, that is, adult life. They understood that childhood was also the real life. They in each of us respected personality. "

  In the House of Pioneers paid great attention to the study of domestic history and geography, especially by Moskiv. The work was not only a cabinet: for example, young historians visited the Hermitage Foundations, and in the summer they went to excavations to the Crimea; Geographers arranged expeditions in the suburbs and the Caucasus.

  About sports, too, was not forgotten, but mainly in applied disciplines. "At the Time of Time", the military-sports and patriotic direction actively developed. Already from December 1936, a consolidated pioneer regiment was acted, where they were preparing future snipers, tankers, parachutists, cavalryists, sanitary workers, sensestiles, dog breeders and pigeons. And in 1938 they created the defense (later military) department, which included the shooting office, the naval laboratory, the school of instructors in chemical and air defense, mugs of machine gunners and grenaderators.

  In the prewarked years, the foundation and chess club Gordoma was laid, which then became one of the strongest schools of this sport in the capital. Young chess players produced a handwritten newspaper, participated in various tournaments and sessions of simultaneous game with famous grandmaster.

  

  Creative space

  In the small territory of the house of the pioneers, everything that could attract and hit children was collected. Want to ride on the rollers? Here is an asphalt playground in front of the gate. Children's pedal cars are immediately driven; Later for them and garage built. Want to read and cook lessons in the fresh air? On shady allys - cozy benches. I want to cut down - go to the sports ground. Even in the zoo, it is not necessary to go: a garden with fruit trees was located in the yard, and in it - a pool with waterfowl, nearby - a living corner with cells for young animals and a small stable stallion. The space of the pride was a real masterpiece landscape design.

  And most importantly, the whole house of Pioneers was a single whole, a huge creative laboratory, where passionate people worked, who inspired and fueled each other. From the memories of the historian Nikolai Merpert: "This whole house of pioneers ... was very valuable and, in the best sense of the word, a deep institution. Different circles communicated with each other, there was a magnificent theater hall, where we usually met, and then a lot of hols, transitions, very cozy corners - this old brick mansion in the stave alley was rebuilt extremely successful. Therefore, we or the youth theater, created at the same time and led by the beautiful directors, a geographical circle, as part of the historical Cabinet of the history of Moscow - we all communicated very, very closely. "

  Adult assistance during the war years

  Despite all the difficulties, the house of Pioneers worked and during the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). Mugs were mainly active, which could help the front: sewing, carpentry, plumbing, electrical. But the classes continued and creative studios, especially theatrical, dance and chorus: young artists arranged concerts for the Red Army.

  In January 1942, Gorde took the patronage of one of the military hospitals. The joinery circle did for the wounded mouthpieces, sewing - brushes, collars and handkerchiefs. For the holidays, pioneers were collected for fighters books and records, gave them a gramophone and aloskop (a variety of filmoskopa, devices for projecting the diafrals. - Approx. Site).

  The guys brought suprate written accessories - envelopes, postcards, paper and pencils, they themselves wrote to the dictation of the news relatives and louds read the soldiers of the newspaper. Young artists decorated with their drawings not only the premises of the hospital, but also the cars of the sanitary train.

  The "Pioneer" tradition of Tuesdays and Fridays were a good tradition, when the circles were held in the hospital, they sang, danced, played scenes and read excerpts from artistic works. And the guys took over the duties of postmen, delivering a fresh press and correspondence.

  All this was done so easily and fun, that the fighters happily waited for new meetings with pioneers. Even the commissar of the hospital, which at first reacted to the proposal to help quite skeptical, a few months recognized as a proud full chief.

  In addition, during the war, the House of Pioneers continued to provide methodological and practical support to extracurricular institutions and child organizations in all parts of Moscow: developed classes and prepared the counselor and instructors.

  After the war: patriotism and expansion of borders

  In the post-war years, the country experienced an unprecedented patriotic rise. With a new force, interest in native history flared up. It could not not affect the work of the pioneers' house: historical circles became one of the main directions. They actually actually acted in preparation for the celebration of the 800th anniversary of the capital (1947). Back in November 1945, the society of young historians of Moscow was created, which united the efforts of the house of pioneers and historical circles in schools.

  Members of the Company read lectures, participated in excursions and travels, archaeological excavations and various contests. In 1946, schoolchildren sent 25 thousand creative works dedicated to the history of Moscow, in 1947 - 80 thousand. There were stories, poems, drawings, layouts, embroidery, photos ...

  Due to the large-scale activity, the Company received many awards from the Ministry of Education, such as a library of historical literature and tickets on excursions in the country. The active activity of historical circles continued in the following years: in 1948, the competition "Wonderful people of Moscow" was held, in April 1956 - the citywide school conference on the study of Moscow.

  Other studios and laboratories, open earlier, developed. According to statistics, more than three thousand schoolchildren were engaged in the first post-war year in the house of the pioneers, and the number of participants in concerts, competitions, sports holidays and other mass events reached up to 35 thousand per month.

  

  In the late 1950s it became clear that the proud could not accommodate everyone. In the report for 1956, the director of the house of Pioneers V.V. String wrote: "In terms of its conditions, our house of pioneers cannot reach the circle work of more than 3800-4000 people ... If there were appropriate conditions, the composition of the ensemble choir could be taking up to 2000-3000 ... given the desires of schoolchildren to creative amateur time and importance Circle work in educating students, it is necessary to achieve the creation of a wide network of circles in each school, to solve the issue of construction in Moscow of the new city house of pioneers in Moscow. "

  Brave project

  In 1958, the Central Council of the All-Union Pioneer Organization decided to build on the Lenin Mountains is not just a new home, but the Palace of Pioneers and Schoolchildren. The memorable stone was laid in the autumn of the same year - October 29, on the day of the 40th anniversary of the WLKSM; Now he is on the left of the alley leading to the main entrance of the palace.

  The place was chosen beautiful - on the high shore of the Moscow River, along the Sparrow Highway (now Kosygin Street). It turned out to choose the project. It turned out more difficult: proposals were several dozen, one more interesting than the other. As a result, the application of the team of young architects led by Igor Pokrovsky defeated; Also in this group, Mikhail Khazhakyan entered, who at his time participated in the reconstruction of the MHDPIO building in the stalk alley.

  The project was so unusual and innovative that the authors did not hoped to embody him, but, apparently, this courage and accounted for the jury. First, the architects wanted to oppose the new structure to the palaces of the past - lush and ambitious, but hardly suitable for children's studies. Secondly, they decided to harmoniously enter the building into the established green array - because of this, they abandoned the symmetric composition, and then, already during construction, the initial plan was not corrected. Thirdly, for reasons of security and aesthetics, the palaces placed not at the road, but on the lawn in the depths of the grove. For complete unity with nature - "smaller massive masonry and more stained glass windows, transparent glass walls."

  As a result, it turned out the free layout building, bizarrely scattered along the landscape park. The walls were decorated with monumental multicolored panels with pioneer emblems: fire, mountain, stars; At the end facades there were pictures "Water", "Earth" and "Sky", which symbolize the conquest of the elements of the person. Even the front area in front of the palace was not poured with concrete or asphalt - left a natural lawn, only dividing it with white stone paths. The center of the composition was the 60-meter flagpole, which turned the territory around himself in the allegory of the Grand Ship.

  

  One of the business cards of the palace was the winter garden: "This is a space, air, light, height. And of course, palm trees, araucaria, liana, papyrus. However, exotic to grow, normal tropical conditions are needed. The tropics were created using a special automated soil heating system, water, air. I had to think about the spectacular falling on the greens of sun glare, about the glass domes, through which the sky would be viewed, about the pool with water plants, about the fountain, about the grid, separating the through gallery from the winter garden. The grille was made openwork, decorative, with fish, birds, insects, in order to fit the rest. "

  Komsomol Building

  Construction, started in 1958, turned out to be large-scale: 18 design organizations were attracted for him, and more than 300 enterprises supplied construction and finishing materials, engineering structures, equipment and furniture. In addition to hundreds of skilled workers, 40 specialties, more than 50 thousand volunteers - boys and girls from all over the country took part in the subbotnik and resurrectors. According to official calculations, schoolchildren and students worked here over three million human-hours! At the end of construction, more than two thousand trees and about 100 thousand colors landed on the territory of the palace.

  The opening of the Palace of Pioneers and Schoolchildren took place on June 1, 1962, on the day of the protection of children. The first secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU Nikita Khrushchev took part in the solemn ceremony. According to eyewitness memories, he said: "I don't know what others will say, and I like this palace."

  In 1967, the architects and designers of the Palace of Pioneers were honored with the State Prize of the RSFSR. But the best reward, they probably considered the words of the famous French architect Bernard Zerfus: "I consider it a truly good architecture, which, being modern, does not lose signs of modernity, even after many years. I am sure that the building on the Lenin Mountains will withstand the time test. "

  Test time

  After the opening of the complex on the Lenin Mountains, the Gorde at stops also became the palace - the district Palace of Pioneers and Schoolchildren named after N.K. Krupskaya (now the Palace of Creativity of Children and Youth Cao).

  And the Palace of Pioneers (now on the sparrow mountains) for half a century grew more than doubled: if in 1962 he included 400 premises, now they are already about 900, with a total area of \u200b\u200bnearly 40 thousand square meters. In laboratories, studios, artistic and technical workshops, sports schools and sections of the Palace (including branches), about 27.5 thousand children from three to 18 years old. In total there are over 1,300 training groups in 10 directions: science and culture, technical, artistic and social creativity, information technology, ecology, ethnography, physical culture and sport. In 93 percent studios and circles, classes are held free.

  The institution has repeatedly changed status and title: In 1992, he was renamed the Moscow City Palace of Creativity of Children and Youth, in 2001 - in the Moscow City Palace of Children's (Youth) creativity. In 2014-2015, a state budget professional educational institution (GBPOU) "Sparrow Mountains" was created during the reorganization, which in addition to the palace includes 16 more educational institutions - kindergartens, general education schools, college of professional technology and additional education centers.

  

  The essence of the Palace remains unchanged: people who are passionate about their business are still working. They help children and teenagers to develop abilities and talents, find a vocation and the road in life.

  And also the Palace of Pioneers, who can simultaneously accommodate up to 20 thousand people, is an excellent platform for festive events. Children and parents willingly gather here for Christmas and New Year, on the day of the family and the day of the protection of children, the day of the city, at the week of children's book and. Of course, and the Palace's own 80th anniversary will also notice to be held on December 7th.
