Deviyen, first lieutenant of the Life Guard Rifle Tsarskoye Selo Battalion. In 1859-1861 a dwelling house with outbuildings, garden and retaining wall from the side of Pavlovsk Road was built for him to the design of the architect A.X. Kolba. Soon the rich Tsarskoye Selo merchant D.A. Drozhzhin, a hereditary freeman, became the owner of Deviyen’s country house. Later his widow M.A. Drozhzhina donated the inherited country house to charitable purposes. The maternity hospital named after M.A. Drozhzhina (14 Pavlovsk Road) for twenty five beds for free medical service of needy women-residents of Tsarskoye Selo was opened here in 1907. On the second floor of the hospital there was the domestic church consecrated in the honour of St. and Glorius Demetrius of Thessalonica, the Great Martyr and Venerable Mary of Egypt. A beautiful two-storied building with an attic entresol and small tower, located in the heart of the park, was built by the architect S.A. Danini on the place of the demolished wooden country house. In 1910-1911 a big wing was added to the main building also according to S.A. Danini’s design, the wing was connected with the hospital with two-storied gallery with wide windows. The laconic facades of the wing were smoothly plastered, and the wing was completed with a tower with the high cone-shaped spire which was appeared as the architectural dominant from the park. Later the Empress Alexandra Fiodorovna became a trustee of this hospital and transformed it into the Centre of Maternity and Infancy, the tutorial committee of which was leaded by Countess S.A. Gendrikova. Professor N.V. Yastrebov, a famous court life- physician, worked as the chief doctor here.
