The estate of A. Firkovich is located in the New Town on the main street. It consists of a complex of structures located on the perimeter of the yard, including the main building, utility room and bath. The main building consists of a two-store residential house and the adjoined one-store utility room. The walls were built of Limestone rubble put on mortar. Presumably in its original form it was a one-store building. The second floor, utility room and baths were built later. The estate got its name from the famous Karaite scholar and public figure Abraham Firkovich, who lived here in the second half of the XIX century. In the late XIX - early XX centuries the caretaker of Chufut-Kale Lived here with his family. The construction of Central defensive wall probably dates back to VI-VII centuries. The wall thickness was increased due to the appearance of firearms in the XV century. The wall has lost its fortification significance in the XVII-XVIII centuries. Since then the space around it was used for building.
