The architect N.A. Lvov , as well as K. Buci, A. Trofimov, Englishman V. Irven, Italian F. Ruska worked on the design and construction of the estate.
The architectural ensemble of the estate includes the manor house and a circular colonnade connecting it with the side wings (carriage and greenhouse) and standing in front of the front gate. Most of the pavilions and arbors of the manor park have been lost. The cascade of ponds consists of preserved upper ward and middle ward ponds.
The heart of the estate is the Church of the Sign of the Mother of God of 1766, built by the father of F.I. Glebov, also general-general, Ivan Fedorovich Glebov . Before the revolution of 1917, the church contained the family icons of the Glebovs : Nicholas of Myra, the Miracle Worker and the Sign of the Mother of God, as well as several icons by Borovikovsky . At the moment, the temple is open to the public and needs restoration work.
