This ancient building Ekaterinburg apparently bears little resemblance to the mill. Rather, it looks like a massive fortified castle. It is built in 1908 and is a five-story building of red brick with contrasting white elements forming shaped ornaments. In the corners of the mill were built towers and the facade is decorated with semicircular gables and cupolas of the same form in the Baroque style. Today, the mill building - is an outstanding example of architecture of the early 20th century and the monument of regional significance.
One theory why so looks mill, says that according to the law to build Flour so close to the railroad was not. But just such a location was most convenient for reasons of logistics. Borchaninov cheated, saying that building a luxury hotel. After passing a majestic building, it has attached neatly to the inside of the mill mechanism. How true this tradition - is unknown.
