General information about Khomutets

The ancient Cossack village of Khomutets is located 15 kilometers northeast of Myrhorod.

It was founded in the 16th century by Myrhorod Cossacks. During the War of Liberation of the Ukrainian people, Myrhorod colonel Pavlo Apostol - the father of the future Hetman of Ukraine Danylo Apostol - became the master of the village. In 1689, the Apostles received a universal for eternal ownership of the family estate in Khomutets from Hetman Ivan Mazepa. A wooden palace and the Trinity Church were built (1754).

На початку XIX століття маєток перейшов у спадок до Івана Муравйoва-Апостола, який звів новий двоповерховий палац і перепланував парк. В 1820-і роки Муравйови-Апостоли проводили тут зборів декабристів, на які приїжджали Павло Пест ...

Muravyov-Apostol Estate

Palace / manor , Architecture

The Khomutets Palace is the ancestral estate of the Cossack family of the Apostols, where the Decembrist meetings were held in the 1820s.

The wooden palace was built in Khomutets by the future Hetman of Ukraine Danylo Apostol in the 18th century. Later, the estate was inherited by the Russian writer, historian and public figure Ivan Muravyov-Apostol. After settling in Khomutets, he replanned the park and added stone wings to the palace, connecting them to the main building with semicircular passages.

Ivan Muravyov-Apostol's sons Matviy, Serhiy and Ipolit, who were active participants in the Decembrist movement, held secret Decembrist meetings here with the participation of Pavlo Pestel, Mykhaylo Bestuzhev-Ryumin and others.

In Soviet times, the palace housed a veterinary and zootechnical school, and a room-museum of the Decembrists was opened.

Recently, the building is in an extremely neglected state and is collapsing. The stucco with the coats of arms of the former owners has been preserved.

In a regular landscape park with an area of 15 hectares, there is a trinity oak, planted by Ivan Muravyov-Apostol in honor of his three sons.
