Construction work began in 1874 and was completed in 1915. A year later he died, Pyotr Vasilyevich
During the construction of the castle, local building materials were partially used, and rare and expensive (granite, marble, rare wood) were transported along the Volga river from Western Europe
The castle used the old Russian and Romanesque architecture.Sheremetyevo castle is surrounded by two magnificent parks.

After the revolution, the castle of Sheremetyev in Yurino was repeatedly rebuilt for the needs of the new authorities. Expensive finishing materials were replaced with cheap ones. Some of the rooms were converted into hotel rooms. The estate was badly damaged at this time. The Cheboksary reservoir also damaged the magnificent structure-cracks began to appear in the floor and walls when the groundwater rose. Since 1993, the restoration of the castle began, which continues to this day.
