Lubyanka Building

Krasnoselsky District, Russia

Lubyanka ([lʊˈbʲankə]) is the popular name for the building which contains the headquarters of the FSB on Lubyanka Square in the Meshchansky District of Moscow, Russia. It is a large Neo-Baroque building with a facade of yellow brick designed by Alexander V. Ivanov in 1897 and augmented by Aleksey Shchusev from 1940 to 1947. It was previously the national headquarters of the KGB. Soviet hammer-and-sickles can still be seen on the building's facade.
