Building with rich woodcarvings on its facade, gorgeously decorated in eclectic style was built in the last quarter of the 19th century. It belonged to the merchants Vorobjovs, but very soon it became city property. Before there was a teachers’ institute, school, tuberculosis dispenser, and military office. Unfortunately, often change of the proprietors almost totally destroyed a splendid interior design of the building. At the beginning of the 90s it was left empty; in 1995 it was acquired by Rezekne Art College (now – Rezekne Art and design high school). Due to the efforts of students and pedagogues, the merchant’s mansion got back its initial outlook. Now guests of the Art House can regale their eyes with the paintings on the ceiling, pompous tile stoves, unique parquet flooring.

In the Art House, one can get acquainted with the exposition “Latgalian painting” from the reserves of the Latgale Culture History Museum and see the paintings by Latgale old masters (J. Beketovs, F. Varslavāns, N. Breikšs, S. Kreičs, V. Kalvāns and A. Egle), as well as the works of new Latgalian painter generation (S. Ludborža, G. Rancāne and others).
