Instytutska Street (Шаблон:Lang-uk) is a street in the neighborhood of Lypky in the Pecherskyi District of Kyiv. It runs from Olhynska Street and Heroyiv Nebesnoyi Sotni Alley to the Klovskyi Descent.

History

Instytutska Street arose at the beginning of the 19th century along the ancient Ivanivsky Way, known since the time of Kievan Rus'. At the beginning of the 19th century, in connection with the development of the area, the street was called Ivanovska. From the 1820s and until 1842, it was called Begichevska Street, after the surname of General Dmitry Begichev, the owner of the estate in this area. In 1842, it was renamed Instytutska Street, the name comes from the Kyiv Institute for Noble Maidens built on the street between 1838 and 1842 (later the October Palace). There was also a parallel unofficial name, Divocha Vulytsia.

In 1919, the street was named 25 Zhovtnia, in honor of the date of the October Revolution of 1917. During the German occupation of the city in 1942-1943 it was called Berlinerstrasse (Шаблон:Lang-uk, Шаблон:Lang-uk) and Instytutska. In 1944, it was renamed October Revolution Street.[4] The current historical name of the street was restored in 1993.

Euromaidan
