Telmanovsky Park is a unique place where you can touch the history and enjoy the beauty of nature.

The history of the park begins in the 18th century, when it was conceived as an integral part of the castle complex. Alas, only fragments of the foundation have been preserved from the castle, but the park with its century-old alleys still impresses with its grandeur and thoughtful layout. Three wide alleys radiate from the place where the castle once stood, revealing a fascinating landscape.


But Telmanovsky Park is not only a history of architecture and landscape design. This place holds echoes of the turbulent events of the past. It was here, at the beginning of the 17th century, that the fugitive monk Grigory Otrepyev, who went down in history as False Dmitry I, found refuge. False Dmitry's stay in these parts is associated with one of the most romantic legends of the park.


A special place in the park is occupied by the "stone of love" – a boulder shaped like a heart. According to legend, it was at this stone that False Dmitry I confessed his love to Marina Mnishek, which makes this place especially attractive for lovers and anyone who appreciates romantic stories.


Telmanovsky Park is a unique place where you can touch the history, enjoy the beauty of nature and feel the atmosphere of the past centuries. This is a place where legends come to life, and stones remember the whisper of love.
