The oldest building in the city of Ivanovo and a unique monument of industrial architecture, which has no analogues in the neighboring areas. The tent is a brick house, separated into large and small room. In the building formerly lived the clerk of Cherkassy princes. Large room housed the books with peasants servage information, the small room belonged to the clerk. The building was decorated in a rather restrained manner inherent to civil buildings of the XVII century. Outside it is decorated with raised curb and keeled ornaments. At the turn of XVIII-XIX centuries, the house becomes the property of the industrialist Osip Shudrov. He built on two floors and located here a textile shop, where the pattern was put on the fabric. In 1964 it was decided to restore historical monument and to return it the presumed original form. Restoration was completed in 1988. Currently Shudrov tent is the Ivanovo branch of the local history Museum.
