Literature Museum, Youth Theater of Uzbekistan
Literature Museum, Youth Theater of Uzbekistan

The beautiful large building on Navoi Avenue was built in 1940 according to the design of architect Stefan Nikolaevich Polupanov for the Tashkent Regional Executive Committee.

The building consists of a four-story central section with an auditorium and main entrance featuring columns, as well as two three-story side wings with semi-circular entrances, also decorated with columns.

Instead of the Executive Committee, the Variety Theater was placed in the central section. In the early 1970s, the Russian Youth Theater staged performances here; now, the Youth Theater of Uzbekistan operates in it.

The right wing houses the Alisher Navoi Literature Museum, founded in 1939 to mark the 500th anniversary of the poet’s birth.

After the advent of television, a TV repair atelier operated in this building, accepting orders for tuning television receivers and repairing radios and televisions.

In front of the building, there is a square with a monument to Alisher Navoi.
