Anton Chekhov in Gurzuf
In the summer of 1899 Anton Chekhov sold his country house Melichowo , located eighty kilometers south of Moscow , went to Yalta on August 25 - because of his tuberculosis disease - and moved in with his sister Maria (1863–1957) and his mother on September 9, 1899 in his newly built villa. The writer lived in Yalta until May 1, 1904. Just six months after the entry of the then already famous Anton Chekhov kept the visits of countless Yalta tourists barely out and bought the dacha Gursufer one Tatars for 3000 rubles without any haggling from. From the summer of 1900 he occasionally fled to his Gursufer dacha and wrote the first act of the drama Three Sisters there in August 1900 .
Only a few friends knew this refuge of the creative, calm-seeking author. Visits by Vera Komissarshevskaya and Ivan Bunin in Gurzuf are recorded.
In 1901 Anton Chekhov bequeathed the Gursufer property to his wife Olga Knipper in a will . The actress, engaged at the Moscow Art Theater , spent the summers there - with the exception of the war years.
