In Crimea by the end of the year will be put into operation 14 houses of culture and 10 FOCs

By the end of 2026, 14 modular cultural houses and 10 fitness complexes will be opened in the municipalities of the republic. Seven houses of culture are already working, the remaining objects are planned to be commissioned before the end of the year. This was reported by the Vice-speaker of the State Council of Crimea Alla Ponomarenko, writes “Crimean newspaper”.

Extrabudgetary funds were allocated for the construction of cultural houses. Objects are built in the villages chosen by the municipalities. They provide facilities for libraries and a large hall-transformer for events. Seven houses are already open and seven more are being completed.

Extrabudgetary funding was allocated for 10 FOCs. Each has a shower, sanitary zone and a spacious hall for different sports. In addition, two large sports facilities are being created: at the Lokomotiv stadium in Simferopol, where the training center for Crimean athletes is located, and in the village of Zavodskoe. There are plans to open a sports school with inclusive education. Eleven municipalities selected sports facilities for development.

Among the significant cultural projects, Ponomarenko noted the completion of the repair of the Dacha Stamboli in Feodosia, where the museum of antiquity will be located, and the opening of the restored Blue Living Room in the Vorontsov Palace in Alupka.

The restoration of the building of the Crimean State Philharmonic in Simferopol has been completed by 90%. The object has the status of a monument of cultural heritage - "Simferopol City Duma and Government". According to the contractor, the structural and facade work is completed, engineering networks are being laid and interior decoration is being carried out. The work will be completed before the end of the year.

Also in early autumn, the Council of Ministers of Crimea allocated 31.4 million rubles for the restoration of damaged cultural objects in Belogorsk and Krasnoperekop districts. The money was used to eliminate the consequences of a technogenic emergency of a regional nature.

There are about one and a half thousand cultural institutions in the republic - libraries, theaters, museums and children's art schools, as well as about a hundred sports organizations.
