The Nikolskoe-Gagarino estate is located in the west of the Moscow region in the Ruza urban district.

The main house was built by Prince Sergey Gagarin at the end of the XVIII century, the appearance of the building can be traced the influence of the Baroque style.

For many years, the Gagarin family collected books, family portraits and furniture from valuable wood. But in 1922, most of the property was sent to the New Jerusalem Monastery, where it was later destroyed by the Nazis.

Also on the territory of the estate is the Church of Nicholas the Wonderworker. Near it is a bell tower, almost 40 meters high. During the Great Patriotic War, it was blown up and restored after 2000 at the expense of parishioners.

You can get to the estate from Moscow by car. The road will take about 1.5-2 hours.
