The beginning of the XX th century was probably the most difficult and unstable period in the history of Ukraine in general and Kharkiv in particular. The Russian revolutions and the civil war were real dramatic events. In 1919 Soviet power was established in Ukraine, and Kharkiv became its first capital. Until 1934 the city was the main political, administrative, scientific and cultural centre of Ukraine. A lot of new plants were built there (for example, the Kharkiv Tractor Building Plant), and new educational establishments, libraries and museums were opened. One of Kharkiv’s landmarks – Gosrpom (the House of State Industry) was designed as the first high-rise building in the country and finished in 1928. another impressive building on the present Independence Square that was erected at that time is Kharkiv National University.

The pre-war period in Kharkiv was not only constructive but also destructive, as many beautiful churches were pulled down in the anti-religious campaign. The older citizens of Kharkiv regretfully recollect the beautiful Nickolsky Cathedral that used to stand at the place where “Zerkalnaya Struya” (“The Mirror Flow”), one of the symbols of Kharkiv, is situated now, and the fine St. Michael’s Church that stood in the modern Uritsky Square.
