The royal residence in the village of Taininskoye
1401–1402. The history of the ancient village of Taininsky, which entered the city of Mytishchi, is inextricably linked with the rulers of the Moscow Principality, and then with the sovereigns of All Rus'.
In 1380, in the battle on the Kulikovo field, together with Prince Dmitry Donskoy, the fate of the fatherland was decided, commanding an ambush regiment, by a talented military leader, the prince’s cousin Vladimir Andreevich, nicknamed Serpukhovsky. Among his possessions, received as a reward for the victory of the Russian army, the village of Taininskoye is mentioned for the first time, which during the 15th century was the center of a vast volost.
1481 The village of Taininskoye was inherited by the future Grand Duke Vasily III, the son of the Great Moscow Prince Ivan III the Great. From that time on, it belonged to the great princes and kings. Located on the road to the spiritual
the center of Russia - the Trinity-Sergius Monastery - Taininskoye became the country residence of the Moscow sovereigns, where grand-ducal chambers for recreation were erected.
During the time of the cruel ruler, reformer, first Tsar of All Rus' Ivan IV the Terrible, the village was repeatedly chosen as the venue for important state meetings. After the conquest of Kazan in 1552, the sovereign
stopped in Taininsky before the ceremonial entry into Moscow, where ambassadors were introduced to him and messengers were sent. Over time, Taininskoye becomes one of the oprichnina.
1605 In the terrible “time of troubles”, when the fate of the country’s independence was being decided, the village of Taininskoye became the center of the most important historical events.
Here the fateful meeting of False Dmitry I took place with the nun Martha, the wife of Ivan IV, Maria Naga, who was tonsured a nun. Martha recognized the impostor as her surviving son, Tsarevich Dmitry, after which False Dmitry was crowned in the Assumption Cathedral of the Kremlin for a short reign.
The troops of the new impostor, who approached Moscow in June 1608, were unable to gain a foothold in Taininsky and founded a camp in the village of Tushino, for which False Dmitry II was known as the “Tushino thief.”
1612 Russia's subordination to foreign invaders did not last long. A nationwide militia gathered to liberate Moscow. Militia troops led by Prince Dmitry Pozharsky and the “elected man” Kuzma
The Minins moved from Yaroslavl through Rostov, Pereyaslavl and the Trinity-Sergius Monastery to Moscow, making a halt before the decisive battle in the village of Taininsky.
1677 The first sovereigns from the Romanov family - Mikhail Fedorovich and Alexei Mikhailovich - took care of their estate in Taininsky, where they often stopped on their way to pilgrimage to the Trinity-Sergius Monastery.
Hunts with falcons and gyrfalcons were organized here. There were “royal mansions” in the village.
In 1675-1677, the Church of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, unique in its architecture, was erected.
Thanks to the efforts of parishioners and contributors, many Orthodox relics were collected in the temple. The preserved temple now appears before us as the architects intended it in the 17th century.
1749–1823. By decree of Peter II, Taininskoye was given to the daughter of Peter I, Empress Elizaveta Petrovna. The Empress visited here often and willingly. Under her, in 1749, a palace was built, rich outbuildings were built, and orchards were laid out. Its owner, Empress Catherine II, repeatedly celebrated her birthday in her beloved Taininsky. For a long time, the palace adorned the ancient village, until a fire on September 21, 1823 destroyed it.
1996 In memory of all the autocrats of Rus', a monument to the last monarch Nicholas II was erected on the palace island of the village of Taininsky. Its author was the famous Russian sculptor V.M. Klykov.

Tsar's Residency in the Taininsky Village
1401 – 1402. The history of the ancient Taininsky village found in the territory of Mytischi town is bound up with the kings of Moscovia and the monarchs of All Russia. A talented commander, the cousin of the prince, Vladimir Andreevich, also nicknamed Serpukhovsky, together with the prince Dmitry Donskoy shaped the fatherland's destiny in 1380 during the Battle of Kulikovo. They commanded a regiment that attacked the enemy from an ambush. The Taininsky village, which was a center of a large peasant community throughout the duration of the XV century, was first mentioned among Vladimir's possessions that were received in reward for the victory of the Russian forces. 1481. The Taininsky village was inherited by the Grand Prince to be Vasilii III, the son of the Grand Prince of Moscow Ivan III the Great. Since that time it was owned by the Grand Princes and Tsars. Located on the way to the spiritual heart of Russia, ie, Troitse-Sergiev monastery, the Taininsky village became the Moscow monarchs' country residence with grand-ducal rooms to rest in. In the time of the cruel ruler, reformer and the first Tsar of All Russia, Ivan IV the Terrible, the village was chosen as a venue of important state visits. Following the seizure of Kazan in 1552 and before his solemn arrival to Moscow, the monarch remained in the Taininsky village, where he was introduced to the ambassadors and sent heralds. The Tainisnky village eventually became one of the centers of the special “monarchic principality”, namely Oprichnina. 1605. During the frightful “Time of Troubles”, when the independence of the country was at stake, the Taininsky village became a center of important historical events. A meeting of False Dmitry I with nun Marfa, the wife of Ivan IV, Maria Nagaya, previously admitted to the veil, took place in this village. Marfa acknowledged the impostor as her surviving son prince Dmitry, following which False Dmitry was crowned in the Cathedral of the Assumption in the Moscow Kremlin for a short period of time. The troops of the new impostor that approached Moscow in June of the year 1608 were unable to fortify their position in the Tainisky village and built their camp in Tushino village. This is why the False Dmitry II was given a nickname “Tushino Thief”. 1612. The subjection of Russia to the foreign interventionists was not long. To liberate Moscow, the national voluntary military forces were assembled. Troops of the citizen-solders, led by the prince Dmitry Pozharsky and the “elected person”, Kuzma Minin set out from Yaroslavl
through Ristov, Pereyaslavl and Troitse-Sergiev monastery to Moscow and halted in Taininsky village before the decisive battle. 1677. The first monarchs from the Romanov dynasty, Mikhail Fedorovich and Aleksei Mikhailovich took care of their patrimony located in the Taininsky village, where they often stopped on their way to Troitse-Sergiev monastery during their pilgrimage. Hunting with falcons
and gyrfalcons was arranged here. The “Tsar's palace” was also located in the village. The Church of the Annunciation, which is unique in terms of architecture, was built here in 1675-1677. Due to the endeavors of the congregation and investors, numerous Orthodox relics were stored in the church. Nowadays, the extant church appears exactly the same as it was planned by architects in the 17th century. 1749 – 1823. By the order of Pyotr II, the Taininsky village was granted to the daughter of Pyotr I, the empress Elizaveta Petrovna. The empress often visited this place with pleasure. During the rule of Elizaveta Petrovna, rich utility structures were constructed around the palace
and orchards were planted in 1749. When Catherine II the Great was owner, she celebrated her birthdays repeatedly in her favorite place, the Taininsky village. The palace embellished the ancient settlement for a long period of time until a fire happened on September 21st, 1823, which destroyed it. 1996. The monument to the last monarch Nicolay II was built in honor of all Russian autocrats on the palace area of the Taininsky village. It was sculpted by the famous Russian sculptor VMKlykov.
