Photo and description

The clinical campus of Saratov Medical University (now the third Soviet hospital) began to function in September 1926. This complex was built as an inpatient clinic at the only then medical faculty of the Imperial Nikolaev University, opened in 1909. A place was set aside for construction on the outskirts of the city, on the slopes of Altynnaya and Lysaya Gora.

It all began in 1914, when a native of Saratov, a brilliant otolaryngologist surgeon, a very rich man, academician N.P. Simanovsky allocated 100 thousand rubles from personal funds for the construction of a special building. The construction project was entrusted to the famous Russian architect - K.L. Mufke (the author of the university campus and a number of notable buildings in Saratov and Kazan). The outbreak of the First World War significantly slowed down the construction of the clinical campus. Since 1916, a small amount of funding has been restored K.L. Mufke continued to work on the completion of three buildings in the clinical campus, and also supervised the operation of the building until 1930.

At the grand opening of the clinical campus in 1926, he spoke the first rector of the Saratov University V.I. Razumovskiy, the acting rector S.R. Mirotvortsev and architect K.L. Mufke, who spoke about the history of the construction of his brainchild.

Subsequently, several capital hospital structures for economic and administrative services were built on the territory of the clinical campus, which turned the complex of buildings into a clinical base of the Saratov State Medical University, where students are trained and advanced training courses for doctors work. On June 10, 2009 (to celebrate the centenary of the Medical University), a church dedicated to St. Luke (Voino-Yasenetsky) was consecrated on the territory of the town, who was a scientist, a world-renowned surgeon, who took the priesthood and did not leave his job as a practicing surgeon.
