General information about Velykyi Zhvanchyk

The village of Velykyi Zhvanchyk is located 20 kilometers southeast of Dunaivtsi, on the road to Stara Ushytsia.

At the end of the 18th century, it had the status of a town. It belonged to the Konetspolskyi, Humeckyi, Zhevuskyi, Mezheevskyi, Lipinskyi, Nepomucens, and Bohush.

In the middle of the 19th century, it became the property of the landowner Ihnatiy Khelminskyi, who built a manor with a palace and a park in Velykyi Zhvanchyk, which has survived to this day.

The last owner of the village until 1917 was the landowner Krupetskyi.

Khelminsky Estate

Palace / manor , Architecture

The estate with a palace and a park in Velykyi Zhvanchyk was established in 1868 by the landowner Ihnatiy Khelminsky. In 1881, a tower was added to the palace.

After the death of the owner of the estate, one of his two sons, Syhizmund Khelminsky, lost his half of the palace at cards to the landowner Matviy Krupensky. In 1902, Krupensky bought the second part of the building, becoming the full owner of the estate.

After the October coup of 1917, Krupensky left for Poland. The villagers looted the palace and tried to burn it down, but thanks to the efforts of the local priest, the building was saved.

In 1953, an anti-tuberculosis sanatorium was located in the premises of the estate, which in 1972 was repurposed into a children's pulmonology sanatorium. The village school was located in the rebuilt stable.

In 2023, with the support and assistance of the Romanian government, the palace premises began to be redeveloped into a sanatorium for children with limited physical characteristics.
