The history of the horse breeding farm, founded in the Oryol province by Vasily Nikolaevich Teleghin, spans almost 150 years. The farm was established in the early 1870s. In 1903, Teleghin moved with his estate to the outskirts of the village of Zlyn. In 1911, the construction of the main estate house was completed, which was later recognized as one of the best examples of Art Nouveau and Neo-Russian style in the region. Most local historians believe it was designed by the famous Oryol architect Alexander Khimets. A large park was laid out behind the house, and a cascade of ponds was created. On the opposite side of the estate, new stables, paddocks, and utility buildings for keeping horses were constructed. Since then, the horse breeding farm has been known as Zlynsky.

In the following years, Teleghin transformed his farm into the largest and most renowned in the Oryol province. After his death, his son, Nikolai Vasilyevich Teleghin, continued the work, crossing Oryol trotters with American Standardbred horses, creating the Russian trotting breed. After the 1917 revolution, the horse breeding farm was nationalized, and the pedigree horses ended up with local residents. During the Civil War, many thoroughbred horses perished, and only a few were saved by the horse breeder's wife.

The horse farm reopened in the 1930s and was officially named Zlynsky (No. 15). During the Great Patriotic War, Zlyn was occupied. After the village was liberated, the horse breeding farm had to be restored, including the manor house. In 2014, the house was restored to its original appearance. The Teleghin estate now houses the Museum of Horse Breeding, showcasing awards and photographs of trotters.
