The Museum homes of V.I. Ulyanov (Lenin) - Simbirsk
Государственный историко-мемориальный музей-заповедник
«Родина В.И. Ленина»
The Volga city of Simbirsk was the birthplace of Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, the Russian politician, Communist revolutionary and political theorist. Lenin was born into a wealthy middle-class family in 1870. Here I show his childhood homes and the local gymnasium he attended. Upon his death in 1924, Simbirsk changed its name to Ulyanovsk in recognition of its most famous son. Lenin would not recognize the city we know today as the town retains little of its past, except in the places associated with him.

The Museum Home of Vladimir Lenin in Ulyanovsk (with English Subtitles)
Guided video tour of the house of Vladimir Lenin in Russia.
Founded as Simbirsk on the banks of the river Sviyaga, a tributary of the Volga, in 1648 as the fort which meant to protect the eastern frontier of the Russian Empire from the nomadic tribes and to establish a permanent Imperial presence in the area, the city was renamed Ulyanovsk in 1924 in honor of Vladimir Ulyanov, better known as Lenin, who was born in Simbirsk in 1870.
Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, the Russian politician, Communist revolutionary and political theorist. Lenin was born into a wealthy well educated middle-class family. His father was the Director of Public Schools in Simbirsk district (which nowadays can be associated with a position of a Secretary of Education) overseeing the foundation of over 450 schools as a part of the government's plans for modernisation. Lenin's mother had relatively prosperous background and was the daughter of a German–Swedish woman and a Russian Jewish physician who served the royal family.

Here I present an album of photographs of the city of Simbirsk taken between 1866 and 1913.
Simbirsk was the birthplace of Vladimir Lenin and the city changed its name to Ulyanovsk in 1924.
During the Soviet period, Ulyanovsk lost much of its historical heritage - all traces of the Cathedral and churches are gone and only a few 19th century buildings remain.
Also during the Soviet period, Ulyanovsk was an important tourist centre, drawing visitors from around the country because of its revolutionary importance and a visit to the home of Lenin was a must. When I visited a few years back, I found the city dreary and uninspiring..........
