Shukhov Rotunda was a round exhibition pavilion built for All-Russia Exhibition 1896 in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. It was built in 1896 with a diagrid hanging cover and was the world's first Hyperboloid structure. It is named after Vladimir Shukhov, who designed it in 1895. The Rotunda was 16 metres (52 ft) high with a diameter of 68 metres (223 ft). The diameter of the steel membrane was 25 metres (82 ft). The rotunda was subsequently moved to Yessentuki and demolished in the 1980s.
