The previously existing Church of the Savior of the Image Not Made by Hands in the village of Islavskoe.
The village of Islavskoye on the Moscow River in 1456 was among the palace villages of the Zvenigorod district, under the name of the village “Voislavskoye”. At the beginning of the XVII century. the village was attacked by Lithuanian people.
According to scribe books of 1624 - 25. Zvenigorod district of the City Camp, the village was listed on the estate “behind the steward Boris and Gleb Morozov, in the village there is a wooden church in the name of the Image Not Made by Hands of Our Lord Jesus Christ and a chapel of the Great Martyr George; and in the church there are images, and candles, and books, and vestments, and bells, and every church building of the landowners; in the village there is a courtyard of landowners, 2 courtyards of clerks, 2 courtyards of people, 39 farmsteads of peasants, there are 54 people in them.” Some residents had nicknames: Fox, Shcherbaty and Melnikov. There was a village near the village, which was the village of Yurinin, Vyazemsk and also.
In the incoming salary book of the Patriarchal Treasury Order for “residential data of churches” for 1628, in the article under the Zvenigorod tithe it is written: “Church of Yegorei the Passion-Bearer on the estate of the steward Boris and Gleb Morozov in the village of Voislavskoye, tribute 6 altyn, 2 money, food and to Moskovskoy proezd hryvnia, viceroyal 6 money, check-in 2 money; Captured on January 30, 1628.”
The village of Islavskoye with the village that was the Yurinin settlement was sold in 1636 by the Local Order from the estate to the estate to the boyars Boris and Gleb Morozov. After Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, his estate from 1663 went to his widow Fedosya Prokofievna with her son Ivan Glebovich, and after the death of Boris Ivanovich Morozov in 1665 it passed to his widow Anna Ilyinichna, who gave her part of the estate in 1668 to her nephew Ivan Glebovich Morozov.
In all likelihood, the Church of St. George in the village of Islavskoe around 1678 was remodeled or built again, for in the parish book of the Patriarchal Order for 1678 it is indicated under the article of the St. George Church: “to write the Church of the Image Not Made by Hands of Our Lord Jesus Christ and in the chapel of St. George, tribute ruble, 4 money, arrival hryvnia.” It was written in this form until 1740.
The village of Islavskoye and the village were ranked among the palace villages after the death of Ivan Morozov, and in 1682, on March 8, according to a personal decree, the palace villages were granted to the wife of the boyar Matvey Apraksin, the widow Domna Bogdanovna, and her children, steward Peter, Fedor and Andrey Apraksin, and in in the same year they were approved by a refusal book, in which the church is described as follows: “in the village of Islavskoye, the Church of God in the name of the Image Not Made by Hands of the Lord God and our Savior Jesus Christ is wooden, and the chapel of the Great Martyr George with a porch, covered with planks, and the old church has two royal doors ; local images: the image of the Image Not Made by Hands, the setting is base, silver, gilded, the crown and tsata are chased, the angels have crowns and tsatas made of silver, gilded, carved. Two Deesis, 14 icons. Altarpiece of the Most Holy Theotokos Hodegetria, overlaid with silver, frame, crowns and crowns made of silver, gilded, base; the image of the Most Holy Theotokos of Tenderness, crowns and bases... there are three bells on the bell tower...”
On July 20, 1685, the noblewoman widow D.B. Apraksina ceded her part of the estate to her children. In 1687, Peter, Fyodor and Andrey Apraksin's estates, located in different districts, were divided among themselves and Andrey's part went to half of the village of Islavskoye, and the other half to Fyodor. In 1704 and 1709 the village of Islavskoye was in the possession of Admiral Fyodor Matveevich and his brother, steward Andrei Matveevich Apraksin, and in the village there was a wooden church of the Savior of the Holy Image.
In 1713, Count F. M. Apraksin sold his half of the village of Islavskoye and the village of Goryshkin to his brother Andrei Matveevich. The church in the village of Islavskoye burned down, and on August 5, 1727, a decree was issued from the Synodal Treasury Order “on the construction of a church, according to the petition of Count Apraksin, ordered to him in the Moscow district, in his estate in the village of Islavskoye, instead of the burnt wooden church, on the same church site , to build again a wooden church in the name of the Savior, the Image Not Made by Hands, and in the chapel of the Great Martyr George; duties from the decree 6 altyn 4 money, the most necessary 1 chet taken.”
In 1731, the Synodal Treasury Order carried out the matter of consecrating the chapel of St. Vmch. George at the newly built church in honor of the Savior Not Made by Hands. In a petition submitted on October 13, 1731, Count A. M. Apraksin asked for permission to consecrate the border of St. Vmch. George and the issuance of the consecrated antimension, and indicated that the real church in the name of the Savior, the Image Not Made by Hands, had not yet been completed. The petition was followed by a resolution from Treasurer Philagry: “On October 18, 1731, by decree of Her Imperial Majesty and with the blessing of the Holy Governing Synod, issue a decree on the consecration of the marginal church and the issuance of an antimension.” The same year, on October 20, the Synodal Treasury Order issued a decree of the Great Assumption Cathedral to Archpriest John Maximov: the limit of the Great Martyr. George...to consecrate on the issued antimension according to the newly correct breviary and give the consecrated antimension to that church to priest Vasily Fedorov.
On May 1, 1738, Count Fyodor Andreevich Apraksin submitted a petition to the Synodal Treasury Order to consecrate the completed church in the name of the Savior Not Made by Hands and issue a consecrated antimension. Resolution by the Reverend Veniamin, Bishop of Kolomna and Kashirsky: “Give a decree and antimins about the dedication. Benjamin Bishop of Kolomna, May 1738, 12 days.” The same year, on May 12, on the consecration of the newly built church, a decree was issued from the Synodal Treasury Order of the Great Assumption Cathedral to Archpriest Nikifor Ioannov and his brethren, according to the petition of the chamberlain Count Fyodor Andreevich Apraksin, ordered in the Zvenigorod tithe, in the village of Islavskoye, to consecrate the church built in the name of the Savior, the Image Not Made by Hands , archpriest, on the consecrated antimension issued from the Synodal House.
After the death of Count A. M. Apraksin, the estate in different counties went to his son Count Fyodor Andreevich, and from him in 1754 it passed to his children Peter, Alexander, Nikolai, Mikhail, Matvey, Natalya and Alexandra, between whom the estate was divided into 1756 Daughter Ekaterina Fedorovna and son Mikhail Fedorovich received the village of Islavskoye as a dowry. In 1779, the wife of I. I. Durnovo, the widow Pelageya Pavlovna, having bought the village of Islavskoye from Count Apraksin, mortgaged it to I. P. Arkharov’s wife, Anna Yakovlevna, and for the latter, on July 17, 1780, it was approved by the definition of the Patrimonial Board.

The village of Islavskoye, Odintsovo district, Moscow region, is famous not only for the fact that Ivan Urgant built his three-story mansion there, but also for the preserved remains of the historical estate of the same name.
This place was first mentioned under the name Voislavskoye in the will of Ivan the Red. The names of the owners are known for certain from the first half of the 17th century; the brothers Boris and Gleb Morozov, close to the royal throne, were in charge here. In 1682, the estate passed to the Apraksin family, whose name is associated with the appearance of the wooden Church of the Savior Not Made by Hands in Islavskoye. In 1780, one of the richest people of that time, General Ivan Arkharov, became the owner. A wooden manor house and a stone church in the classicist style are being built under him. At different times, this place also belonged to the families: Postnikovs, Loris-Melikovs, Likhachevs, Sushkins, Alekseevs.

In 1998, there was a fire in the main house that destroyed all of the interior woodwork:

There is a huge hole in the wall, which for some reason made me associate it with a location in some computer shooter:

Remains of tiles on the floor, also clearly from a later period:
Trees are already growing in full swing in the main part of the house:
You have to watch your step, otherwise you might unexpectedly find yourself on an excursion in the basement:
A huge iron tank remained at roof level, which provided the water supply system for the estate. It's surprising that this colossus hasn't collapsed yet:
Unfortunately, there is nothing else to see in the main house. Next to it are the ruins of a service building:
Nearby stands the stone Church of the Savior of the Image Not Made by Hands, which was built at the very end of the 18th century and until recently was abandoned, but with the money of private investors it was restored, and at the moment it is operational:
Before restoration it looked like this:

In written sources, the village, named Voislavskoye, was first mentioned in 1358 in the will of Ivan the Red. Since then, for two and a half centuries it has been among the palace villages. The name is anthroponymic in nature and comes from the Old Russian name Voislav. But it is no longer possible to find out who this person was.
In the first half of the 16th century. Islavskoye is a trading center of a vast area, and is in the possession of the Zvenigorod prince.
In 1620, the village was given over to the estate of the steward brothers Boris and Gleb Ivanovich Morozov. The Morozovs were people with many fiefdoms and close to the royal throne. Boris Ivanovich was the “uncle”, educator and friend of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. With his accession to the throne, he rose to the position of the main leader in the government of the country, headed the most important orders, and was an indispensable member of all meetings of the Tsar's Duma. And he became even closer to the king by marrying the sister of Queen Miloslavskaya.
After the death of boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, half of the village in 1663 went to his widow Fedosya Prokopyevna (the famous schismatic) and son Ivan Glebovich. And two years later Boris Ivanovich died.
In 1682, the estate came into the possession of the Apraksins. Fyodor Matveevich Apraksin was one of the associates of Peter I; from the tsar's steward, he rose through the ranks to the governor of Arkhangelsk. F.M. Apraksin also has a glorious military past, he managed the navy and department, and won a victory near Gangut in 1714. 
In 1713, Fyodor Matveevich ceded his half to his brother Andrey, who inherited the estate to his son, Fyodor Andreevich, under whom the wooden Church of the Savior of the Image Not Made by Hands was erected in the village.
In 1780, Islavsky was owned by Infantry General Ivan Petrovich Arkharov, one of the richest people in Russia at that time, whose fortune was estimated at one and a half million rubles. In the village there were wooden ones: a two-story manor house and a church, but the stone church was just being laid out. It was built in the classicist style by 1799.
After Arkharov’s death, Islavskoe passes to his daughter, then to her husband. Later the estate belonged to I.D. Loris-Melikov, landowners Sushkins and their grandson M.I. Alekseev.
I was able to find archival materials relating to the period of ownership of the estate by the hereditary honorary citizen Mikhail Ivanovich Alekseev. To equip the estate, he took out quite large loans (62,000 and 40,000 rubles), and annually insured it against fire, which nevertheless happened in 1910 and caused damage of 4,600 rubles.
Below I will give the estimated value of the estate, which allows us to judge the composition of the estate's buildings and land use.
Among the buildings mentioned: a large stone two-story manor house, with balconies and a glass gallery connecting the house with the kitchen. The house has large, bright rooms and running water. Kitchen and laundry room are wooden with stone basements; wooden manager's house; wooden outbuilding; The Kucherskaya outbuilding is made of stone; two baths; wooden gardener's house; cellar with drying room, two-story stone; human wooden; a stone greenhouse with two compartments: greenhouse and peach; a stable of 20 stalls, partly stone, partly wooden with floors and ceilings; wooden arena on stone pillars; two carriage houses: stone and wooden; two cattle yards and a wooden barn. All listed buildings are covered with iron, which indicates the wealth of the owner. The only building covered with planks is a wooden hay barn, on stone pillars. The said property was in good condition at that time and was insured for the amount of 84,845 rubles.
The estate had an orchard with a greenhouse, a garden with linden alleys, and opposite the house behind the road along the Moscow River there was a park with old spruce trees and a pond.
Probably M.I. Alekseev had financial difficulties and was looking for ways to resolve them. First, he mortgaged Islavskoye, then the option of renting was considered: “the house could be rented out as a summer house and bring in up to 2000 rubles in the summer. income, in addition, it is possible to receive up to 1000 rubles from an orchard.
Arable land in the amount of 41 dessiatines is located on a flat area to the northeast of the estate, near the meadow. It is all of the same quality, heavily fertilized and sown mostly with oats and clover. Part of the arable land, up to 8 acres, is rented out for vegetable gardens at a price of 25 rubles. for a tithe. In general, all arable land together with vegetable gardens can yield up to 820 rubles. income.
There are 64 acres of meadows on the estate. They stretched along the river. Moscow and give from 200 to 300 poods of hay per tithe. The best flooded part is between the arable land and the river bed. By renting out all the meadows it is possible to receive, with proper care, from 40 to 60 rubles. per tithe, and in total up to 3200 rubles. From the pasture - on average up to 15 rubles. from the tithe."
In Islavskoye, forestry economy was developed; wood was sold for logs, boards and firewood. The best quality forest, with a predominance of coniferous species (pine and spruce interspersed with birch, aged 50-60 years), grew on 100 acres in the northern part of the estate. Forest of average quality (birch and aspen with a predominance of the latter) occupied 350 acres in the southeastern and northern parts of the property. The remaining 180 acres were under young growth of deciduous trees at the age of 2, 15 and 20 years.
The forest is well maintained and divided into 26 blocks. The areas “ripe” for logging were annually cleared of dead wood and dead wood.
Taking into account all areas of economic activity and the expected material benefits, Alekseev estimated the cost of his Moscow region at 230,000 rubles. By the way, the estate of Baroness Meyendorff Podushkino (several miles from these places) with a luxurious castle, but which had rather modest land in 1917, was valued at 237,000 rubles.
31 (according to researcher N.A. Filatkina on October 28) October 1911 Alekseev sold part of the land (with a water mill located on it) adjacent to the eastern border of the estate in the amount of 787 acres, with good forest, but without an estate, to Ivan Vikulovich Morozov for 325,000 rubles, or 412 rubles. for a tithe. The estate was named Gorki. In 1912-1914 designed by architects V.M. Mayat and V.D. Adamovich, a manor house was built here in the neoclassical style with a complex of services (the ensemble has survived to this day).
In 1914, the estate changed owners. Judging by the application to the Board of the Moscow Land Bank, they are Ivan Ivanovich and Alexandra Ivanovna Zimin. They write: “... our buildings (formerly M.I. Alekseev) are located in the Moscow province, Zvenigorod district, near the village of Islavskoye, 12 versts from the Golitsyno station of the Aleksandrovskaya railway.”
The temple has been restored and is functioning. The surviving brick manor house with a wooden extension dates back to the second half of the 19th century. It was badly damaged by a fire in 1998 and is now abandoned.

Personalities
I.P. ARKHAROV, 1744-1815, infantry general, Kashira nobleman, son of brigadier Pyotr Ivanovich, born May 13, 1744. Having received no education, Arkharov was largely endowed with natural intelligence and common sense. In his old age, however, he had the weakness of boasting of his education and knowledge of the French language, which he did not know at all. At the age of 16 he began serving in the Preobrazhensky Regiment. The Arkharov brothers were close to the Orlov brothers, and to this latter they owe their rise. I.P. Arkharov took part in the Archipelago expedition: it is unknown whether he participated in the Chesma battle, which glorified the name of Orlov, but they say that he was his assistant in the “feat” that darkened the good name of the Chesma hero, in the abduction of Tarakanova. During the last years of the reign of Catherine II, he was out of favor and, thanks to this, immediately after the accession to the throne of Paul I, he was rewarded with generosity: he received the rank of infantry general and the Order of St. Alexander Nevsky, was appointed military governor of Moscow and granted a significant number of souls. His governorship in Moscow left a memory of the establishment of a special garrison “Arkharovsky” regiment of police dragoons, recruited from all sorts of rabble and giving rise to the unflattering epithet “Arkharovets”. In 1797, due to the disgrace of his elder brother, Arkharov was also dismissed from all positions and sent to live in the village. Moscow society expressed sympathy for the exile, and many gathered to see off the Arkharovs, including N.M. Karamzin, who brought a bunch of books to relieve boredom in exile. Arkharov was loved in Moscow for his hospitality, for which his house in Moscow and the village of Islavskoye near Moscow were famous, where he often gave holidays to Muscovites. But his second wife, Ekaterina Alexandrovna, enjoyed special love and respect. Upon the accession of Alexander I, Arkharov was returned from exile and lived in St. Petersburg and Moscow in the winter, and in Islavsky in the summer. He was married 2 times: to Shchepotyeva (2 daughters) and a second time to E.A. Rimskaya-Korsakova (also 2 daughters: Alexandra - for Vasilchikov and SOFIA - for Count Sollogub). Appearance I.P. he was very reminiscent of his older brother, just as fat and flabby in his old age, Arkharov had the same large, penetrating eyes, only his face was less cold and unpleasant. He died in St. Petersburg on February 4, 1815 and was buried in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.
(From a miniature from the collection of M.A. Vasilchikova, village of Korallovo, Moscow province.)
E.A. ARKHAROV , 1755-1856, cavalry lady, 2nd wife of Infantry General I.P. Arkharova, born. Rnmskaya-Korsakova, in her youth, had a very attractive face, was friendly and affectionate, and was distinguished by her especially tall stature and beautiful complexion, which remained until old age. Having received no education, she had great natural intelligence; having a kind heart, she was of an independent and strong character, and until the end of her life she remained faithful to the views that she had formed in her youth and was strict about those human weaknesses that she considered reprehensible; he was an integral personality who knew no doubts or hesitations. E.A. She got married not particularly young and immediately established order in the house, which gave it a typical old Moscow character. Arkharova skillfully managed her affairs and never incurred debts, and used her surplus income for good deeds and gifts. No deviations were made from the once established order and order: until the end of her life she rode in an old-fashioned carriage, which surprised the whole of St. Petersburg, on shabby beds, with the same coachman and postilion who grew old with her; she rode in a one-wheeler to pick mushrooms, which her coachman picked, lived among a whole host of distant relatives and hangers-on, but she never wanted to increase the rent from her peasants, the size of which was once established by Ivan Petrovich himself. Strictly observing fasts and church rules, E.A. had her weaknesses: she loved to eat well and play cards. All-night vigil and Easter matins were celebrated at home, and on Easter she celebrated Christ with everyone. The structure of life in the house was patriarchal: she did not part with her married daughters, she recognized family ties to a barely noticeable degree and always patronized those who knew how to consider her kinship or affinity. After the death of her husband, Arkharova lived in St. Petersburg with her daughter Vasilchikova, spending the summer in Pavlovsk. Arkharova enjoyed universal respect: on her birthday (July 12) and name day, everyone came to congratulate her; Every year on July 12, Empress Maria Feodorovna honored her with a visit. To the requests and petitions of E.A. they did not refuse, and the honor of “old woman Arkharova” was accepted by her as something due, belonging by right. When E.A. received an invitation from the Empress to dinner, she appeared at court in the very costume in which Borovikovsky depicted her. This invitation was an event in the house: upon returning from the palace, delicacies, unceremoniously taken from the Highest Table, were distributed from the hands of the lady to all household members and servants. Arkharova loved to have people read aloud to her and was interested in Russian literature, but asked to skip scary parts. She feared death and died on May 27, 1856, with firmness and full memory. She was buried at the Lazarus Cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

Manor Park
Islavskoe. The former estate of the Arkharovs is located on the banks of the river. Moscow. The manor house, built at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the Spasskaya Church (1799) of the Cossack architectural school and outbuildings have been preserved. Currently, the estate houses a children's sanatorium (note: in 1997). What remains of the linden park are the central and circular alleys, as well as a side alley made of spruce and linden. There are six exotic and ten local species in the park. Of the introduced plants, the best are 17 specimens of Siberian larch (height 25 m, trunk diameter 75 cm). In addition, there are hedges of Caragana arborescens, Tatarian honeysuckle group, rugose rose, common lilac and meadowsweet. The most powerful development of local species has been achieved by: weeping birch (height 20 m, trunk diameter 44 cm), common spruce (height 27 m, trunk diameter 67 cm), Scots pine (height 26 m, trunk diameter 63 cm), goat willow ( height 14 m, trunk diameter 29 cm) and small-leaved linden (height 18 m, trunk diameter 49 cm). To put the park in order, it is necessary to carry out sanitary felling.
Islavskoye, located east of Zvenigorod, is one of the oldest villages in the Moscow region. Archaeological research on its eastern outskirts revealed traces of settlements, molded ceramics belonging to the “Dyakovo” culture and dating back to the middle - end of the first millennium AD. Subsequently, the place was abandoned and was again occupied by a settlement in the 11th-13th centuries. The mound group on the bank of the river also dates back to this time. Moscow, 1.5 km from the village. In written sources, the village, called Voislavskoye, was first mentioned in 1358, in the will of Ivan the Red, and since then, for two and a half centuries, it was among the palace villages.
The ancient village of Islavskoye
The name is anthroponymic in nature and comes from the Old Russian name Voislav. But it is not possible to find out who this person was. A whole series of surviving economic documents from the first third of the 16th century. depicts Islavskoye as the center of a vast area of villages and settlements, which are in the possession of the Zvenigorod appanage princes and spread along the river. Moscow.During the Time of Troubles, Islavskoye fell into a zone of military operations, and in 1618 a detachment of Prince Vladislav was stationed there. Soon after this, in 1620, the village was given to the estate to the brothers stolnik Boris and Gleb Ivanovich Morozov.
According to the description of 1624, in Islavskoye there was a landowner's courtyard, two courtyards of clerks, two courtyards of people and 39 peasant households, where 54 people lived, and the wooden church of the Great Martyr George. In 1636, the village was sold to the owners from the estate to the patrimony.
The Morozovs were people of many estates - in the same Zvenigorod district they owned a number of villages, and were close to the throne. Boris Ivanovich was the “uncle”, educator and friend of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. With his accession to the throne, he became the main leader in the administration of the country, headed the most important orders, was an indispensable member of all meetings of the royal duma, and became even closer to the king by marrying the sister of Tsarina Miloslavskaya.While leading the country, Morozov did not forget about his personal well-being. In 1654, after the reunification of Ukraine with Russia, the Russian-Polish war began. When setting out on a campaign, the tsar granted his teacher the highest military rank - courtyard commander, commander of the “sovereign regiment”. Using his position, Morozov took Belarusian peasants to his estates, gave them loans and tried to secure them for himself. In 1657, he beat the tsar with his forehead so that “the sovereign would grant - he ordered those peasants with their wives and children to be rewritten with their faces and signs and ages and written in the books for him.” In Islavsky alone there were 47 of them.
After the death of boyar Gleb Ivanovich Morozov, half of the village in 1663 went to his widow Fedosya Prokofievna (the famous schismatic) and son Ivan Glebovich. Two years later, Boris Ivanovich Morozov died, and in 1668 his widow Anna Ilyinichna gave her part of Islavsky to her nephew Ivan Glebovich.
The village was again in the same hands, but Ivan Glebovich died childless and was the last of his kind. The village, as an escheat, again became a palace, and in 1682 it was granted to the widow of boyar Matvey Vasilyevich Apraksin, Domna Bogdanovna, and her children, steward Peter, Fyodor and Andrei Matveevich Apraksin. Three years later, Domna Bogdanovna ceded her part to the children, and in 1687, as a result of the family division, half of Islavsky went to Andrey, and the other half to Fedor.

Fyodor Matveevich Apraksin was one of the associates of Peter I. In 1682, as a nineteen-year-old youth, he was granted a stolnik to Peter, then he participated in his amusing troops, accompanied the tsar on a trip to Arkhangelsk and on a voyage along the White Sea, in 1693. appointed governor of Arkhangelsk, where he built a fleet for four years. Later we see him in Azov, Voronezh, where he also builds ships, and 1708 finds him commander-in-chief in Ingria, where he crushes the Swedes, for which he was elevated to the dignity of count. Later he managed the fleet and the naval department, and won the famous victory at Gangut in 1714. Fyodor’s brother Andrei made a career largely, if not entirely, thanks to his brother and rose to the rank of ober-schenk.
In 1713, Fyodor Matveevich ceded his half of Islavsky to his brother. Andrei Matveevich Apraksin owned the village until his death in 1731. After him, it went to his son Fedor Andreevich. The new owner was married to the granddaughter of the first Russian field marshal, Countess Alexandra Mikhailovna Sheremeteva. Under Anna Ioannovna, he was granted the rank of chamberlain in 1733, and in 1744, already under Elizaveta Petrovna, he was promoted to lieutenant general.
According to documents of that time, the active economic activity of F. A. Apraksin in Islavskoye can be traced. In particular, he is restoring a wooden church that was damaged by a fire in 1727. It was consecrated in honor of the Image of the Savior Not Made by Hands. The chapel of the Great Martyr George was preserved. After his death in 1754, Islavskoye went to his four sons and two daughters, and two years later, when the common property was divided, it became the property of his third son, Mikhail Fedorovich Apraksin.

A description of the village in 1768 has been preserved. At that time there was a wooden church, three streets, a square, a landowner’s estate, there were 58 households, where 250 male and 104 female peasants lived. In 1779, Count M.F. Apraksin sold the village to Ivan Ivanovich Durnovo’s widow Pelageya Pavlovna, who soon mortgaged it to Ivan Petrovich Arkharov’s wife Anna Yakovlevna, for whom the estate with 371 revision souls was approved by the Patrimonial Collegium in 1780. After her death, Islavsky was owned her husband was Infantry General Ivan Petrovich Arkharov, one of the richest people in Russia at that time, whose fortune was estimated at one and a half million rubles.
Having married a rich girl, Ekaterina Alexandrovna Rimskaya-Korsakova, Ivan Petrovich Arkharov focused exclusively on putting her vast estates in order.
Ivan Petrovich’s brother, Nikolai Petrovich, was not much like him in character. The favorite of Paul I, the 2nd Governor-General of St. Petersburg, an active, dexterous courtier, a skilled intriguer, capable of predicting and even partially controlling the moods of Paul I, fulfilling all his whims. Having quickly nominated himself, he hastened to take care of his brother, offering Pavel his candidacy for the post of Moscow Governor-General. And although Ivan Petrovich referred to the fact that, having lived for many years in the village, he was unaccustomed to everything military and was afraid of not pleasing His Majesty, nevertheless, he was appointed to the position. In Moscow, he formed an infantry regiment from eight garrison battalions, which received the name “Arkharovsky” and became famous for such severe discipline and cruelty that the word “Arkharovets” became a household name.
Arkharov began to live as a great gentleman in Moscow. His house on Prechistenka was open to all his acquaintances both morning and evening. Every day at least forty people dined with him, and on Sundays balls were given, which attracted all the best Moscow society. Ivan Petrovich greeted his guests with such sincere cordiality that each of them could consider himself the most desirable person for him. He embraced especially honored and beloved guests, saying: “What should I treat my dear guest? Just order, and I will roast any of my daughters for you!”
According to the description of the late 18th century. in Islavskoe there was a wooden two-story manor house with services, at which a “regular” garden was laid out. In the village there were 77 households, 264 male and 231 female souls, a wooden church, while another, a stone one, was just being laid out.
Remains of the Islavskoye estate
The church was finally built in 1799 by the architect of the circle M.F. Kazakov and was still dedicated to the image of the Savior and had two chapels: in honor of the icon of “Joy of All Who Sorrow” and the Great Martyr George. Two images were especially remarkable in the temple: the ancient icon of the Mother of God “The Sign” and the icon “Joy of All Who Sorrow”, donated by I.P. Arkharov. Ivan Petrovich Arkharov served as governor in Moscow for two years. The Muscovites were pleased with him, and he himself was satisfied with his position, when suddenly, through the fault of his brother, his career was cut short in an unexpected, but usual way in Pavlov’s time. Nikolai Petrovich, who fell into disgrace and was expelled from St. Petersburg, comes to his brother in Moscow.
Suspicious Paul I orders the Moscow commander-in-chief Count I.P. Saltykov, follow every step of the Arkharovs. No matter how experienced and careful Nikolai Petrovich was, once at dinner his brother burst out a few words of condemnation of Pavel’s rash impulses. On April 23, 1800, an order was given to dismiss the Arkharovs from service. And on April 24, an order was sent to deport both of them to their villages, where they were ordered to live until a special order. The Arkharovs' exile did not last long. On March 11, 1801, Alexander I ascended the throne, who again enlisted them in the service and allowed them to live wherever they wished. Ivan Petrovich settled in Moscow again, and his house was still hospitably open to everyone. In 1812, the Arkharovs had to move to St. Petersburg, and here, as in Moscow, they enjoyed general respect. After the death of I.P. Arkharov, which followed on February 16, 1815, Islavskoye was inherited by his daughter Maria, who was married to the Chief Prosecutor of the Senate Zakhar Nikolaevich Postnikov (in the files compiled on this inheritance, it is mentioned that there were 196 souls of peasants in Islavskoye male).
Later, the village passed to his son, titular councilor Ivan Zakharovich Postnikov. Under him, in 1852, the village had a church, 41 courtyards, 213 male and 215 female souls. Soon he ceded the estate to the collegiate secretary I.D. Loris-Melikov, who owned it for a decade and a half, and in 1867 it was sold at auction to Colonel I.V. Likhachev, who immediately ceded it to the hereditary honorary citizen I.O. Sushkin, after whose death he was succeeded by his widow Tatyana Ivanovna. Under her, by 1890, 472 people lived in Islavskoye, an elementary school was opened, the trustee of which was the owner of the estate herself. After her, the estate passed to her grandson M.I. Alekseev. In 1902, to increase the profitability of the farm, he set up a stud farm, which in Soviet times turned into a highly profitable production. According to the 1926 census, there were 131 households in Islavskoe, where 593 people lived, there was a village council and a first-level school. During the Soviet period, the population of the village declined sharply, and according to the 1989 census, there were 85 households and only 112 permanent residents. The boarding house "Polyany" is located nearby. According to the stories of old-timers of neighboring Nikolina Gora, Islavsky owned part of the water meadows on the left bank of the river. Moscow near Aksinin. Because of these disputed meadows, during haymaking there were fights between the peasants of the two villages. To the west of the estate complex there is a series of ponds, which before the revolution constituted a single complex of the estate.
