The Great Pirogowskaja Street ( Russian Большая Пироговская улица) until 1924 Large Zarizynskaja Street is a street in the district Khamovniki in central administrative district of Moscow . It leads from Subovskaya Street to the Novodevichy Convent Square . The length is 1.75 kilometers.
history
Great Pirogovskaya Street was built in the 16th century as a route from the Moscow Kremlin to the Novodevichy Monastery. This route lay on the extensive Frauenfeld (Russian Девичье поле ). The street got its first name after Peter I's first wife , Evdokija Fyodorovna Lopuchina, who lived there . In 1924 the street was renamed Big Pirogovskaya Street - in memory of Nikolai Pirogov (since the parallel Small Tsaritsynskaya Street was also renamed Little Pirogovskaya ). Today's street scene dates from the late 19th century, when the Moscow Magistrate designated an area of 18 hectares on Frauenfeld for the construction of a "medical area" in 1885. The construction of several different buildings of today's Moscow State University (MGU) began . From 1912 to 1913 an extensive green area was laid out on the Frauenfeld.
