Description
Museĭ-usadʹba Ostafʹevo is a stately estate in a village near Moscow with a late 18th-century classical palace. The main building features white columns, decorated facades with plaster medallions, and spacious interiors, surrounded by a church and supporting structures.
History
A prince established the estate in the 1770s and commissioned a renowned architect to design the main building, which was completed in the early 1800s. The property became a cultural hub where major writers produced their works.
Culture
The estate served as a gathering place for Russian writers and thinkers who created and shared their work within its rooms. The spaces still reflect this literary past through their arrangement and furnishings.
Practical
The estate is best explored on foot, as various buildings and the grounds are connected by pathways. Visitors should allow time for both the interiors and outdoor areas to experience the full layout.

The grounds witnessed an early and remarkable event in aviation history when a balloon flight successfully landed there in 1803. This rare moment connects the story of scientific progress with the estate's own history.
