      • Over the centuries the Petrovskoye estate was owned by the Shuiskys, Naryshkins and Razumovskys; in the 1860s the state bought it for the Petrovsky Agricultural Academy.
      • The dilapidated main house was pulled down, and in the 1860s an academy building in the neo-Baroque style, designed by N. L. Benois, was built on its foundations.
      • The roof is crowned with a clock tower with a bell.
      • The academy has borne Timiryazev's name since 1923; the monument to him in the square between the buildings is by the sculptor M. Strakhovskaya.
