Lubyanka Building

The Lubyanka Building in Moscow is a historic structure that served as the headquarters of Russia's KGB (Soviet secret police) and later the FSB. Built in the early 20th century, it is notable for its strategic location and distinctive architecture. During the Soviet era, it was associated with intelligence gathering, political repression, and surveillance, often symbolizing state security and control. Today, while some parts remain operational, others have been repurposed into offices and a museum. Its imposing presence reflects its significant role in Russia’s political and security history.
