Abstract

Written on the basis of materials identified in the collections of
the Russian Scientific Library, the State Public Historical Library
of Russia and the State Archives of the Russian Federation,
the article presents the interim results of a study conducted
within the framework of the Russian Science Foundation grant
“Military Theme in the Architectural and Spatial Development
of the Far East”. The authors provide a review of sources that reveal various aspects of garrison and barracks life in the 1900-
1930s. Red Barracks, which are the main object of the study, are considered from two perspectives: as the basis of red-brick garrison architecture widespread throughout the Russian Empire from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok, and as an ideological construct of the first decade of Soviet power, opposed to the Royal Barracks.
