The Losyev-Nechayev-Somov estate in the village of Ternovoe is located on the edge of the upper terrace of the Veduga River and harmoniously fits into the natural landscape. Together with the Losyev-Somov estate in the village of Gubarevo, it forms a landscape-architectural complex of monuments.
These lands belonged to the widow of Captain Savva Paramonovich Losyev and their sons. Later, the estate passed to Sergey Mikhailovich Somov, a representative of the famous noble dynasty of Voronezh. After the revolution, the estate house housed a school.
Nearby is the ancient Epiphany Church in the Baroque style with elements of Russian medieval architecture. After the formation of the Soviet Union, it was considered one of the most valuable monuments of Voronezh province. The filming of the famous movie "The Fate of a Man" in these places also added to its fame.
The Losyevs managed their estate on a grand scale but did not forget about charity. Lieutenant Colonel P.B. Losyev donated land for the construction of a church near the Anyov Monastery, while Guard Ensign M.P. Losyev built a church in the village of Bogoyavlenskoye in 1748, which became a model of Baroque architecture with features of medieval Russian architecture.
In 1769, the Losyevs built the Epiphany Church in the village of Ternovoe, which is now one of the most valuable architectural monuments of Voronezh province. They also contributed to the victory over Napoleon by sending 838 people to the People's Militia, including 45 warriors.
The Nechayevs owned a wool-washing factory and trading shops in Voronezh, as well as stone houses that still adorn the city today. After the Losyevs, they became the owners of the Ternovye estates and rebuilt them, merging two adjacent estates into one.
Y.I. Nechayev, the city head and honorary citizen of Voronezh, donated funds for a women's diocesan school on Voskresenskaya Street (now Volodarsky Street, where Gymnasium No. 1 named after A.V. Koltsov is located). He also built a charitable institution on the church land of the Voskresenskaya Church.
A.I. Nechayev, the leader of the Voronezh nobility, founded and bequeathed to Voronezh a two-class public school for boys, where shoemaking and bookbinding were taught. He bequeathed the city 300,000 rubles, the interest from which was to be paid as a dowry for poor brides, and donated a house to the women's three-class school.

The Somovs owned brick houses in Voronezh, which still beautify the city today. They became the owners of the Ternovskaya and Gubarevskaya estates in the late 19th century and contributed their culture to them.
S.M. Somov, the provincial leader of the nobility and leader of the nobility of the Nizhnedvitsky district, where the Somov family estates were located, held various positions, including secretary of the Holy Synod and chief prosecutor. He was the chairman of the Voronezh branch of the Imperial Musical Society and often covered the expenses for local music classes and schools.
His wife, V.A. Somova, chairwoman of the Voronezh Circle of Drawing Lovers, secured subsidies for the art school and painted herself. She donated teaching materials to the school and completed six icons for the home Nikolayev Church of the Alexandrov Children's Orphanage for free, often inviting students from the art school to her estate in Ternovoe for sketching.
