With crenellated towers and stained glass windows, it looks like a medieval one and attracts with its peculiar beauty.
This castle is amazing, first of all, for its pedigree.
Its owners were Vasily Petrovich and Olga Dmitrievna Sheremetev, descendants of a well—known family.
Olga was the sister of Mikhail Skobelev, the general, the famous hero of Shipka.
The castle, designed by the German architect Rudolf Muller in the late Gothic style, also has features of Gothic, Oriental, Romanesque and Old Russian styles.
The combination of red and black bricks with white stone details is simply mesmerizing.
The south entrance leads to a glass-domed conservatory. The rooms of the castle had their own purpose.
Among them is the famous office of General Skobelev with a rich collection of weapons.
The interior of another oriental-style room resembled a Persian one.
It has preserved colored marble columns imported from Italy, and Arabic murals on the instructed colored marble floor.
There is also an art gallery, an oak Room.
As a rule, all the former master rooms were connected by special passages with spiral staircases.
The Sheremetev estate has a large park area, on its territory there is the St. Michael the Archangel Cathedral, which admires with its architecture and decoration.
