The Internet shows what pre-Soviet Kyiv looked like in the winter of 1915. Archival photos

Old photographs remain one of the opportunities to look into the history of Kyiv and learn about its life. In the winter of 1915, an unknown amateur photographer took several photos in the capital's center.

The pictures were published on his Telegram channel by Kyrylo Stepanets, a Kyiv guide. You can see what the city was like almost 110 years ago.

"Photos of pre-Soviet Kyiv, 1915," the Kyiv expert captioned the photos.

The published photos show a Kyiv policeman standing on a street, a Kyiv hotel, and the National Opera of Ukraine.

As a reminder, the village of Darnytsia Carriage Repair Plant, better known as DVRZ, was founded in Kyiv in 1934. At that time, these were two- or three-story buildings that looked almost like palaces due to their stucco moldings and appearance.

The capital's Rusanivka residential area is completely surrounded by an artificial canal, which gave this area the popular name of "Kyiv Venice". In the 1980s, a series of photographs were taken here that captured the beauty of this location.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, in 1970 the water level in the Dnipro River in Kyiv was very low. Because of this, large shoals could be seen between the islands located between the left and right banks of the city.
