history

The Elektrosawodskaja belongs to the third construction phase of the Moscow Metro. On the route from Kurskaya station to Partisanskaya station (at that time Ismailovskaya ), which went into operation on January 18, 1944, the Elektrosavodskaya station opened on May 15, 1944. It is one of the seven Moscow metro stations that were put into operation during the Second World War .

The station was closed from May 19, 2007 to November 28, 2008 in order to replace the escalators , which were from 1944. The interior of the metro station has been extensively restored without changing its appearance.

description

The Elektrosavodskaya metro station, 31.5 m underground, was built according to a sample plan. It consists of three naves that are supported on pillars . The architectural and artistic design is the work of the architects Vladimir Shchuko (died in 1939 while working on the station), Vladimir Helreich , Igor Roschin and Lyubov Shagurina .

According to Shchuko's planning, which was inspired by the nearby incandescent lamp factory, six rows of circular recessed lights fitted with incandescent lamps were arranged on the ceiling of the barrel vault above the central platform hall. The beginning of the Second World War interrupted the work, which was resumed in 1943. Helreich and Roschin completed the artistic design by taking up the fight on the home front during the war as an additional theme . 12 Marble - wall reliefs of the sculptor Georgi Motovilov to pointing to the station hall side of the pillars depict scenes from the everyday work of the factory workers and factory workers as well as in the fields of agriculture and transport are at the side facing the track sides of the piers are decorative ventilation grilles with wall lights and. Hammer and sickle symbol . The walls of the railway line in the area of ​​the station are clad with red Georgian Salieti marble, the rectangular pylons with Prochoro Balandinski marble from the Urals and their bases with olive-black Armenian Davalu marble.

During the restoration of the station in 2008, the flooring was renewed. The original black and gray marble slabs laid in a checkerboard pattern in the central aisle, which had lost their luster over time, were replaced by more resistant slabs of granite and labradorite . The surface is bordered with an ornamental band made of pink and yellow Bijuk-Jankoj marble from the Crimea designed as a running wave . The automatic entry barriers have been renewed, the police and ticket offices have new rooms. Light strips embedded in the floor mark the edge of the platform.

The Elektrosawodskaja has an above-ground entrance structure ( vestibule ) in the form of a hexagonal building with a dome. On the facade of the entrance hall is a group of figures by the sculptor Matwei Maniser , which represent the three builders of the metro. The inside walls of the entrance hall are lined with red Salieti marble. In the spandrels of the arches there are six medallions with reliefs of the pioneers of electricity : Mikhail Lomonosov , Pavel Jablotschkow , Alexander Popow , William Gilbert , Benjamin Franklin and Michael Faraday .

Elektrozavodskaya Station is on the list of the most valuable architectural monuments in Moscow. It provides a link between the Art Deco -beeinflussten Stalinist architecture of the pre-war period to the stations of the second phase and the sacred sounding Metro style built after the war stations at the Koltsevaya Line ago. Helreich and Roschin were awarded the Stalin Prize First Class in 1946 for their work on the Elektrosavodskaya .

Platform of the stop

The railway stop, also known as Elektrosavodskaya, is located on an embankment in the immediate vicinity of the entrance building of the metro station. The stop is on the Moscow – Kazan railway line , which begins at the nearby Kazan train station . Although the line itself was built from 1862, the Elektrosavodskaya stop was only built on it in 1949 in order to expand the then existing metro station into a connection point with the railroad. In the years 2003-2004, the stop was rebuilt and received the current access structures with platform barriers and the light green roofing of the platforms. Currently only one of the two platforms is used for train handling.
