History
As Lazarevo Gorodishche known since 1147 (it was ravaged by the Polovtsy ). This name is mentioned in sources up to the 19th century . In 1654, the village was liberated from the rule of the Commonwealth , at that time it was owned by the stolnik Pavel Semyonovich Timiryazev. In the 1670s, a church was built in the village. In the middle of the XVIII century, the rights to the village passed to the Smolensk noble family Leslie (descendants of the Scottish noble family). It is known that in 1763, college assessor Ivan Vasilyevich Leslie received permission to build a new church in the village. But since he was sent by Catherine II to the Siberian governor, where he made a huge fortune in 10 years of governorship, he built a new stone church with three chapels (the Savior, the Nativity of the Virgin and St. Nicholas), returning in 1790, in gratitude for the salvation of the crossing through one of the Siberian rivers. After the death of Ivan Vasilyevich, his wife Anna Mikhailovna built 17 more churches, including in Yelnya and Smolensk. Their son Sergei Ivanovich built a stone manor house in the village in the 1810s and set up a park with greenhouses. Subsequently, the village was owned by Denibekov and Pleskachevskaya, who in 1852 sold the estate to another Leslie Alexander Alexandrovich.
In 1918 the estate was nationalized. Currently, the remains of the park and the church (now operating) have been preserved.
