The town of Stupino, located in the Moscow region, attracts tourists with a large number of attractions. Its history began with a small village founded in 1507. In 1934, it received the status of a workers' village and a new name - Electric Locomotive. However, four years later, the settlement was returned to its historical name - Stupino - and given the title of city. Today it is one of the most important production centers in the Moscow region and a popular destination for excursion, pilgrimage and cultural tourism.
Monument to the hubs - creators of aviation technology
The fact that the city of Stupino was formed thanks to the aircraft plant is reflected already at the entrance to the city. Guests are greeted by a symbolic monument, which is a model of a MIG-23 fighter mounted on a large white pedestal. Its nose is aimed at the clouds, which gives the impression that in the next second the plane will fly skyward.
Location: Pobeda Avenue.
Property Features
Recently, the city has been actively growing. The Tsentralny microdistrict is being built up: here, along with apartment buildings, kindergartens, schools, pharmacies, shops are appearing - the development plan for the area provides for the presence of a full package of social, everyday and cultural facilities within walking distance.
It is interesting to note the rational planning of the city - a separate industrial zone, a convenient location of streets (thanks to the perpendicular-parallel layout), the active participation of city-forming enterprises and simply major market players in the social and cultural projects of the city, which is a definite plus for the residents of Stupino.
Thus, on the territory of several Stupino villages, an ambitious integrated development project is being developed - where there will be multi-storey residential buildings, low-rise buildings and private houses and cottages, as well as a park for residents with an area of 800 hectares.
The urban planning plan includes the possibility of creating a yacht club in the Kashira backwater - of course, since Stupino is located on the wonderful Oka River. And projects for the construction of this facility are already being discussed.
The administration of the Stupino district, which recently won the nomination for the provision of municipal services at a competition, is attracting potential investors - for example, the Mercury hotel chain. So a hotel of a world famous chain will soon appear in the city.
With the support of the administration, the foot workers participate in various competitions and hold events at the Leisure Center named after. Nikolai Ostrovsky. New buildings in Stupino are expanding with infrastructure and landscaped local areas for the same reason.
One of the most interesting projects on the real estate market in the Moscow region, supported by the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation, is “New Stupino”, a satellite city with low-rise buildings and the All Inclusive principle.
In addition to social infrastructure facilities, Novy Stupino will have its own theater and cinemas, fashionable fitness centers, public gardens and ponds, a dedicated business zone, a separate industrial zone, catering outlets, bicycle paths and even its own department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. Not every Moscow district can boast of such infrastructure.
Monument to the creators of propellers
In general, throughout the city there are monuments related to aviation. For example, on Pobedy Avenue there is an original structure called the “Monument to the Creators of Propellers.” It consists of two columns on which a huge propeller is mounted, with blades painted a joyful blue color. It all looks beautiful, impressive and, of course, unusual.
Location: intersection of Pobeda Avenue and Metallistov Street.

Memorial to the pilots of the 445th Air Defense Fighter Aviation Regiment
There is another aviation monument in Stupino, but it has a completely different and very sad history. In 1978, a plane crashed near the city. As a result, five crew members, who were pilots of the 445th Air Defense Fighter Regiment, were killed. This regiment defended the city during the Great Patriotic War. The monument looks like a white stele with a carved silhouette of a falling plane.
Location: 1st Street, directly opposite buildings 16 and 17.

Another interesting attraction is the Museum of History and Local Lore. It was opened in 1985 in the House of Culture, and then the main exhibition dedicated to the fortieth anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War was held there. In the museum you can also learn about the history of the development of the region, and the exhibits presented to your attention will help restore the chain of events in the life of the city and region. The museum holds archaeological conferences that reveal the history of the development of the area.
In the city and in the Moscow region there are churches and temples that have survived since the 16th century. Such a striking example is the Holy Trinity Belopesotsky Convent. The monastery was first mentioned in 1498 by Abbot Vladimir, and then it was he who was considered the founder. Later, under Ivan the Terrible, the monastery was fortified with huge stone walls. But during the Tatar invasion, the monastery suffered the most, but the great princes always helped in restoring the holy walls. During the Great Patriotic War, the monastery performed a military function. It was a refuge and stronghold for military operations, and in 1941 it was located on the front line. Of course, even then the walls suffered destruction, but they were rebuilt again and again, since such a holy place should not be forgotten.
In 1918, a stone church was built under the strict leadership of landowner Vasily Karpov and Moscow merchant Mikhei Fedorovich Bobkov. In 1901, the interior of the church was redesigned, since the iconostasis was placed in an unfavorable position and was inconvenient to use; it was decided to move it closer to the altar. In Soviet times, the church was closed for a short time, but then Kazennova Anastasia Ivanovna, having gone to Moscow with a request to open, achieved her goal and the church never closed its doors to parishioners. Today, services are constantly held within the walls of the shrine.
Several monuments to metallurgists have been erected in Stupino. They are all different in beauty and size. Thus, a monument to metallurgists-rollers was erected in the city center in honor of the 60th anniversary of the city. It looks like a huge globe held up by three steles.

Maryinka Estate
The Maryinka estate (another name is Vozdvizhenskoye) became known from the beginning of the 18th century. Owner D.I. Buturline was a famous mason, and in the 1780s he began construction of a grandiose palace designed by the architect V.I. Bazhenova. Nowadays, all that remains of the large estate complex is the Vozdvizhenskaya Church built in 1748 with an Empire bell tower and a horse yard with services.
The surviving buildings of the Maryinka estate are now located behind a concrete fence, on the territory of a children's health camp and are practically inaccessible for inspection.
The Church of the Exaltation is currently being restored. And it was built back in 1748. You can also explore the park with a radial tree planting system and several broken ponds.
Avdotyino Estate
The Avdotino-Tikhvinskoye estate is the most famous and mysterious of the Masonic estates in the Moscow region. It is located in the Stupinsky district. The owners of the estate were the Novikovs, E.F. Zaborovskaya, P.A. Lopukhin. In the middle of the 19th century, an almshouse for the Almsgiving Committee was set up in the estate, which later became the responsibility of the Moscow City Duma at the end of the century. The name “Masonic” was associated with the journalist and writer of the Catherine era N.I. Novikova.
The main house of the estate has not survived. Now you can see on the estate a two-story outbuilding and the Tikhvin Church, built 200 years ago. And more recently, mysterious underground passages were discovered. From the outbuilding there are underground passages leading to the church, to the unpreserved main house of the estate, the remains of a carriage house, and the neighboring estates Nikonovskoye and Troitskoye-Lobanovo.
This is the first fact in the history of the existence of underground passages under Russian estates. And why they were made remains to be seen.

Today, unfortunately, all of this splendor and beauty has been lost. Only numerous dilapidated buildings from the 1800s have survived: the lower floor of the manor house with outbuildings, a horse yard (3 buildings), three buildings of different services, the Assumption Church of 1819.

Gorodnya Estate
The Gorodnya estate is located in the Moscow region, in the Stupinsky district, somewhere 32 km from the Mikheevo railway station. This estate is surrounded by other estates: Chirkino, Fedorovskoye, Golochelovo, Meshcherino, Prusy. Almost all the buildings have not been preserved, only temples and churches have remained intact. The main surviving building of Gorodnya is the Resurrection Church, one of the best examples of hipped-roof architecture of the 16th century.
The first mention of the church occurred in 1578, when the estate belonged to the Sheremetev family. Unfortunately, the last alterations of the church in the 20th century, as well as more recent ones, distorted the appearance of the majestic Church of the Resurrection. At the moment the church is active.
Manor Troitskoye-Lobanovo
The Troitskoye-Lobanovo estate was founded at the turn of the 16th-17th centuries, and over the following centuries it passed from one owner to another more than once. This list is extensive and includes very famous surnames - these are the princes Volkonsky, and the son of Catherine II and Count Grigory Orlov, Count Alexei Bobrinsky, and the Azanchevsky family.
Many buildings from the estate's architectural complex have survived to this day, despite the fact that the main house and outbuilding have survived only as ruins. Of great interest is the Church of the Holy Trinity, built at the end of the 16th century. In the 18th century, a bell tower was erected next to the church, which in 1843 was connected to the main volume by adding a refectory. Small fragments with turrets have been preserved from the churchyard fence. However, the main pearl of the estate is the extensive park, laid out in the 18th century, consisting of mixed tree species.
Trinity-Lobanovsky Park, in its architectural and compositional characteristics, had a number of advantages that made it very cozy and picturesque. It is designed simply and laconically, not overloaded with decorative elements, and the layout emphasizes its scale.

Avdotyino Estate
Location: Stupinsky district, Avdotino.
The estate is famous and attracts tourists thanks to a network of dungeons that were discovered not so long ago. It turned out that they connected most of the buildings of the estate, and also led to the neighboring estates Nikonovskoye and Troitskoye-Lobanovo. They are located at a depth of 6.5 - 8 m. Why they were built and how these passages were used is still not clear.
The dungeons date back to the late 18th – early 19th centuries. At this time, the owner of the estate was N.I. Novikov, a famous educator of that time. He became one of the first publishers of a satirical newspaper that ridiculed the way of life of that time. Catherine II banned N.I. Novikov was asked to engage in printing activities, and he moved to Avdotino.
Here he was actively involved in the construction of a bell tower on the estate. In addition, on his estate, he launched a project of “communication houses” - residential buildings that were intended for peasants and aimed at uniting them. The houses stood along the road and formed a single chain. All of them had their own entrance and were intended to accommodate 4 families. Some of them have survived to this day.
The Empress was informed about such an unusual and strange idea, and in 1792 a search was conducted in the estate to find a secret printing house. Nothing was found, but the owner of the estate was still sent to prison. N.I. released Novikov was established only after the death of Catherine II, by decree of Paul I in 1795.
Having returned, he again actively began to carry out construction, began redeveloping the park, and laid out a garden. They say that this activity was intended to hide the work on the construction of underground passages.
N.I. Novikov died in 1818. His estate was sold to P.A. Lopukhin, who demolished the main house. The beautiful Tikhvin Church with a bell tower and the remains of an outbuilding, which until recently was still residential, have survived to this day, but the fire that happened practically destroyed it. Novikov was buried at the altar of the Tikhvin Church, where a memorial plaque was installed.
