For centuries the native residents of old Tyurisevya lived mainly by fishing.
After the revolution, emigrants settled in the empty dachas; the writer Leonid Andreyev lived here in the winter of 1918–1919.
In the early 20th century there was an estate here of Count Alexander Sheremetev, who lived in it for another ten years after the revolution.
