At the entrance from the Kyiv side and in the center, there are monuments to the victims of the accident at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant, which is located only 50 kilometers from the village. In 2000, the "Egg of Life" sculpture was installed as a symbol of rebirth.

Селище Іванків на річці Тетерів розташоване в 80 кілометрах на північний захід від Києва.

Відоме з 1589 року, коли київський міщанин Проскура передав ці землі своєму синові Івану, який заснував поселення й назвав його своїм ім'ям. Однак на південно-східній околиці, на території парку, збереглися сліди давньоруського городища Х-ХІІІ сторічь.

В Іванкові існував замок, розібраний в 1834 році. Є православна церква, костел, синагога та молитовний будинок.

На в'їзді з боку Києва та в центрі встановлені пам'ятники жертвам аварії на ЧАЕС, яка розташована всього в 50 кілометрах від селища. В 2000 році встановлена скульптура "Яйце життя", як символ відродження.

"Egg of Life" Monument

Monument

The "Egg of Life" monument was installed in 2000 at the exit from Ivankiv in the direction of Ovruch, near the bus station.

An unusual concrete sculpture in the form of a huge egg was presented to the village by the German architect Armin Koelbli as a symbol of the life and fertility of the earth, which should be revived after the severe "Chornobyl disease".
