== First Lobachevsky University Lyceum ==
In 2022, Ust-Labinsk saw the opening of one of its key new landmarks – the First Lobachevsky University Lyceum.<ref>{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.1tv.ru/news/2022-04-08/426034-universitetskiy_litsey_otkryt_na_kubani |title=Университетский лицей открыт на Кубани. Новости. Первый канал |language=ru |access-date=2024-10-01 |via=www.1tv.ru}}</ref>
The Lyceum is a boarding school for talented youths who want to study sciences. The Lyceum is designed for 475 students of the 7-11 grades. The Lyceum education is free of charge, based on a scholarship system.
The curriculum of the First University Lyceum is based on the principles of International Baccalaureate and at the same time replicates the academic educational system of leading universities. Most of Lyceum’s teachers and heads of departments are lecturers from leading universities and specifically the [[Moscow State University]].
The Lyceum is named after a famous Russian mathematician [[Nikolai Lobachevsky|Nikolay Lobachevsky]] to reflect the school's focus on sciences. The Lyceum was built by the [[Volnoe Delo|Volnoe Delo Foundation]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Ust-Labinsk Lyceum Educational Institution |url=https://www.invest-ustlab.ru/en/success-stories/ust-labinsk-lyceum-educational-institution/ |access-date=2024-10-01 |website=www.invest-ustlab.ru}}</ref>

=== Architecture ===
[[File:Courtyard of the First Lobachevsky University Lyceum.jpg|thumb|'''Courtyard of the First Lobachevsky University Lyceum'''|left]]
According to Lyceum's architect, the building was inspired by the works of the [[Renaissance]] architect [[Filippo Brunelleschi]].<ref>{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.1tv.ru/news/2022-04-08/426034-universitetskiy_litsey_otkryt_na_kubani |title=Университетский лицей открыт на Кубани. Новости. Первый канал |language=ru |access-date=2024-10-01 |via=www.1tv.ru}}</ref> The Lyceum is built in accordance with the classical architectural traditions that saw their rebirth in Renaissance [[Italy]].
It echoes some of the key features of Brunelleschi’s ''[[Ospedale degli Innocenti]]'' located in [[Florence]].
According to the architect, the arch entrance into the cloister bears a passing resemblance to Brunelleschi’s design of the ''[[Pazzi Chapel]]'' while the Lyceum’s main entrance is a magnificent classic three-storey high [[Corinthian order|Corinthian]] portico.
The Lyceum's building has become one of Europe’s largest new-built structures in the [[Classical architecture|Classical style]].
