About history

The Grand Hotel Zvezda has a very long and glorious history. On the site where a new hotel has been built today, in pre-revolutionary Tver there was the London Hotel, which was then one of the best places where guests of our city sought to stay.

Trekhsvyatskaya street

Trekhsvyatskaya Street, which is called the "Tversky Arbat" for its pedestrian character, rich in cultural, commercial and entertainment establishments, was originally one of the most important in the historical appearance of the city after the fire of 1763. It led to the village of Trekhsvyatskoye, the suburban residence of the Tver bishop (now the Palace of Children and Youth).

During the period of drawing up the regular Tver plan in 1760, the future Trekhsvyatskaya Street was called Staritskaya. The design option was not approved, and in the last third of the 18th century, the Tverites began to build up a street called Trekhsvyatskaya.
During the second half of the 19th century, many shops appeared on this street. Among them are the famous pastry shop of merchant Pirogov in the city, the Fish store, and the grocery store of merchant Ustinov.

The London, Venice, and Central hotels were located on Trekhsvyatskaya Street, and in 1901 a tram track was laid along it from Judicial Square (now Lenin Square) to the railway station. In 1911, the Grandelectro cinema opened on this street.

In 1899, the P.P. Maksimovich women's teacher's school moved from Kozmodemyanovskaya (Zhelyabova) Street, which became the basis of the current Tver State University.

house of merchant A.M. Shuvaeva with a mezzanine is shown fragmentally, perhaps she was captured by a photographer at the door of the house. Alexandra Mikhailovna rented out part of the premises for a grocery store. At the same time, there was a trade in lamps and crystal tableware. Shuvaeva's house existed in the 1970s, but was later demolished.

Simeonovskaya Street

The street was built according to the first regular building plan of the 1760s as part of the Meshchanskaya Sloboda. It is named after the church of Simeon Stylites located on it (built in 1676, demolished in the 1930s). In 1919, the street was renamed Kalyaev Street in honor of I.P. Kalyaev. The street received its current name in 1993 in memory of the first Tver bishop Simeon, the founder of the Tver diocese (1271).

In the 1950s, there was an apartment building on Trekhsvyatskaya Street, 25-27. One of the best urban development complexes of the post-war years in the center of Tver, which to some extent became a logical continuation of the idea of building Tver with a "solid facade". In the 70s — 90s of the XX century, the Zarya Hotel of the Tver Region Administration was located here.

The Grand Zvezda Hotel has now been built here, a hotel in the very center of the capital of the Upper Volga region at the intersection of Trekhsvyatskaya
and Simeonovskaya pedestrian streets.
