by Gavrila Batenkov in 1819, which served nearly a hundred years. The Brick Bridge was being constructed during the wartime (1915 – 1916), so Austrian prisoners took part in the works.

The group of the buildings occupied by the museum dates its history from 1842 and is historically appealing for the fact that has been preserved in the center of the town without essential losses and reconstructions. G. Batenkov and M. Bakunin were guests to this house. In 1868, the Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich stayed there. In 1879, the heirs of Astashev sold the house to Tomsk Clerical Administration.

в        России,
Будто      терем      сказочный,
Весь в  резьбе, как в паутинке,
Птиц  

на      ставни выпускал,                                   
На        певучей       берестинке

Из травинок,        из   росинок
На досуге сотворил
И  в   счастливый    час России
Это чудо подарил
