Anyone who was on the Volokolamsk highway of the capital between the Sokol and Tushinskaya metro stations could not but hit how the usual type of city quarters was suddenly interrupted from the emerging green forest wedge. From under the embankment, it suddenly suddenly emerges a powerful wall of a brick darkened from time to time and stretches along the side of the highway almost half a kilometer, just as suddenly breaking off a mighty, almost serf tower, as if lost in time, with a sharp spire crowned with a flooding. Approximately in the middle, the wall retreats deep into, interrupting the horseshoe -shaped arc of the same brickwork, with decorative turrets in the corners. In the center, a huge gate rise with an original wicker pattern of the wings and a powerful superstructure above them. And behind the fence throughout its length, from the very bridge, the bulk of the dense forest is gloomily darkened.
Muscovites knew that it was the Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo estate, or Pokrovskoye-Glebovo. But numerous guides have spoke extremely sparingly about her all over the past decades, like such a passage: "Next - the Park of the sanatorium in the estate belonging to Streshnev." Only. The fenced territory for many decades, starting in the 1930s, was the strictest regime object, a forbidden zone, access to which was ordered by mere mortals. And they could only admire the bizarre structure and guess about its purpose. Meanwhile, the estate had an original, but completely forgotten fate
