In the time of the totalitarian regime "great leader of all time," Comrade Stalin appeared in the guise of an ascetic and disinterested, deliberately stressing that "people's well-being - above all," and he and tattered overcoat enough. But in case it was not so. No matter how to classify materials about his secret desire to rest on a large scale, many even in those days, knew what translates "a sincere rejection of luxury," the state treasury, and how many lives it necessary. Just today, we can safely look at some of the residence (there were 20!) Joseph Stalin.
Of course, the so-called cottages were not simple holiday houses and real palaces with incredible fortifications and bunkers even because "The great leader of all times and peoples" very much afraid for his life, constantly waiting for the assassination, and that the panic was felt even in the details. Therefore, all the objects were built in strict confidence by carefully selected experts, who immediately became employees of the Ministry of State Security (MGB).
Note: MGB (1946-1953 gg.) - is one of the established names still in 1923 a special body, the state security. It was originally called the OGPU (United State Political Administration, 1923-1934 gg) subsequently, the department joined the NKVD (People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR, 1934-1946 gg.). It is with the vigorous activity of the body associated with the most terrible and dark events that took place in those years in the country.
Given the immense appetite of Joseph Stalin and the desire to relax in the best places Motherland, cottages can be found in the Moscow region, the Crimea, Sochi, Abkhazia and Georgia. Naturally, one residence, he especially loved and valued, and some only occasionally appeared, and there were also those where the leader had seen only once, or he did not show up. Therefore Novate experts. Ru decided to collect material about the most significant for the peoples of the Father cottages and tell in general terms, what they all share.

Most Stalin liked the so-called 'Near' or Kuntsevo dachaLocated not far from the Victory Park on Poklonnaya Hill in the village of Volyn. Here he not only prefers to rest, but actually lived for 20 years. The residence was designed by architect Myron Merzhanov and built in 1933-1934 under the personal guidance of the leader, who claimed every detail and special attention to their own safety.
His favorite summer residence, as well as all the others, was painted green in order to prevent detection of secret object from the sky, and under some very real buildings equipped with bunkers. As the entire territory to enclose several kinds of fences ranging from barbed wire and finishing with six-meter fences. But that's not all, the outer perimeter of a few kilometers (the area of each of the estate ranging from 50-100 ha!) guarded by the NKVD units, whose number reached 1,000 people during the visits of the leader the proletariat. Air space is tucked in air defense and located around each residence zenith portion, the sky to fly over them always closed. Inland adequately protected almost one hundred soldiers (all depended on the situation in the region and the area most villas).

In addition to the protection of each government dacha had a staff (room service): a team of waiters and maids, several drivers, janitors, gardeners, and round the clock nurse on duty, was his personal barber, and, most importantly, a toxicologist, whose responsibility it was to check the condition of the products and ready meals before serving table. Typically, on each clock giving was attended by about 50 people subservient, and if the "great leader of all times and peoples" sit-down dinners, their number increased by half.
Almost all villas have the same layout and interior, because Stalin did not love the diversity, exceptions were only a few residences in the southern regions, where it is only resting, so there was no office. For example, residence, Better known as "distant country house", located in the park named "Semenov-Joy", was a copy of "near" with only minor changes in interior design.
The most striking decorative elements were fireplaces: decorated with onyx and opal, is located in a large dining room, and in Malaya - the extraordinary beauty of the marble. Special attention should be one of the bedrooms, where the leader of the most liked to rest. It issued a rare tree - dark oriental plane trees and and all the furniture was made because of him. But everything else was standard.
The only thing that in each of the residences had to equip several bedrooms (at least four), only one ruler Countries tips to concerned for their safety leader could at any time to change the place of sleep, because then the enemy will not find him sleeping unawares.
It is interesting: What is inside the train was the leader of North Korea, given once Stalin
In the offices, as a rule, in addition to the desktop it was a few sofas, so the leader could spend the whole day in the same room. Taking into account the preferences of the owner, architect Myron Merzhanov for 10 years, created the tiny room for personal use host and great - for banquets and receptions of foreign guests (large and small living rooms) in all his house, which had construct.
Incidentally, for these efforts to the Father of the peoples 'thanked' and of the architect and his wife, and his team, declared "enemies of the people." Them for that was sentenced to 10 years in the camps, who have not experienced it!
Furnishing the residence enjoys a very close people who have done just that wanted the leader of the Soviet Union. Since it is not very respected pretentiousness and pomposity, the more luxurious in each of the residences have been living rooms and bedrooms for visiting dignitaries from abroad.
In this case, and his apartment can not be called monks' chambers, the money from the treasury on their registration no sorry, he just preferred a more natural finish. Naturally, and all the furniture was exclusive, it manufactured the Moscow furniture factory "Lux", performing only this kind of government orders.
In some cottages, located in the southern regions, it "New Matsesta" and "Riviera" in Sochi, "Sukhumi", "Ritz" and "Miusera" in Abkhazia, "Koreiz" and "Trapeznikova" in Crimea - for the leader not only settled in beautiful parks for outdoor activities and beaches, but also fed the sea or healing water in special earthenware tubs.
As is known, this material retains heat for a long time, as well as useful natural minerals and substances, so it is in them, Stalin arranged curative procedure, given his poor health. They help remove the seasonal exacerbation of rheumatism, which he had suffered for many years.
Although the health of the peoples of the Father was not quite right, but the famous "dinner", conducted at his dachas, begins at 10-11 pm and ends at 3-4 in the morning, he arranged regularly. Of course, he did not drink much, but made in the form of an order to do others to learn the true mood of colleagues, given the well-known statement - "that a sober mind, then a drunk in the language. "
Naturally refusal regarded as wrong thoughts and fear spill the beans, so all drank to complete "blackout" or intoxication. And in order to attendants could not see and hear all these outrages were preparing extra equipment, all the dishes and drinking. When the owner suddenly wanted to change the food or equipment, he just uttered a few words in Georgian "fresh tablecloth" - it served as a call to action.
Waiters lightning shot tablecloth with doroguschy crockery, crystal glasses and all sorts of delights mixed up and carried out of sight and then again was covered with a new table.

And such "ascetic" entertainment held regularly, in spite of the war, no hunger "Great leader of all times and peoples ", together with his associates and fatten ruled in" paradise for workers and the peasants. " Only the last in this celebration of life was to perform feats, carrying the burden of the war and survive in lean years, and a special caste approached, led by their leader portrayed themselves as ascetics and virtue.
But not all the "servants of the people" can boast of mansions and thousands of army service staff and security. Some for ourselves a completely different way. And among them the hero of the next review, which is really the poorest president in the world.
