Нероново, Historical estate in Soligalichsky District, Russia

Neronovo is a former Cherevin family estate in the village of the same name, Soligalichsky District, Kostroma Oblast, on the high bank of the Veksa River about 30 km south of Soligalich. At its centre stood a rectangular two-storey brick manor house measuring 24 by 26.6 m. The estate church of the Resurrection, consecrated in 1790, has a five-tier baroque iconostasis.

The Cherevin family owned Neronovo from 1697. By the early 19th century the estate had grown into a complex of about twenty buildings, with greenhouses, a cattle yard with a riding hall, stables and a poultry house, plus regular and landscape parks and orchards. The estate church of the Resurrection was consecrated in 1790. In December 2010 the buildings were sold at auction for 594,000 rubles to Roman Morozov.

The estate served as the center of life for a wealthy family whose education was displayed through a substantial book collection. The furnishings and art inside reflected the owners' social standing and intellectual pursuits.

The estate lies about 30 km south of Soligalich on the high bank of the Veksa, near the old road to Chukhloma. The surviving complex is a group of non-residential buildings: the main house, the manager's house, an economic wing, the assistant manager's house and a bathhouse, on a plot of 162,429 sq m. The buildings are unused and not maintained as a museum, so expect no visitor facilities.

Among the library's holdings were a Slavonic Bible printed by Ivan Fyodorov in Ostrog in 1581 and a 17th-century manuscript copy of the Soligalich Chronicle. Portraits of the estate's owners, painted in the mid-18th century by the local artist G. S. Ostrovsky, also come from Neronovo.
