main building of the Lomonossow university

on the occasion of the 800-Jahr-Feier of Moscow 1947 the foundation-stones for the building of the Lomonossow university is put. The multistoried building is one of seven, which takes a symbolic position as an ensemble of the stalinstischen buildings of representations at that time. The complex established under the line of the architect Lew Rudnew is subject to a strict symmetry to the tower. The Turmspitze was demanded by Stalin themselves. The tower is garnished with neoklassizistischem decoration and a set of socialist hero sculptures. The enormous extents of this building of universities go the far beyond actual requirements. The architectural criticism speaks here of a monumental building with decoratively überladenem Neoklassizismus, which celebrated in the era Stalin the exaggerated pathos.
