The château and park at Bogoroditsk in 1786 (watercolor by Bolotov)

It was founded in the second half of the 17th century[3] as a wooden fort. In the 1770s, the fort was demolished to make room for the palace of the Bobrinsky family. The main château, designed by Ivan Starov and partly destroyed during World War II, is adjoined by an English park, said to be the earliest in Russia outside St. Petersburg. Bogoroditsk was granted town status in 1777.[3] During World War II, Bogoroditsk was under German occupation from 15 November 1941 until 15 December 1941.[13]
