General information about Kniazhychi

The village of Kniazhychi is located 15 kilometers east of Kyiv, near the Brovary district.

Probably, in the 10th century, there was a princely fortress at this place, which is where the name came from. The first documentary mention is in the deed of the Polish king Kazymyr to the Kyiv voivode Yuriy Pats from 1489. In 1709, the owner became the owner of the Saint Michael's Golden Domed Cathedral, then the Shuysky princes.

Architectural monuments have not been preserved.

Now it is a recreational area and a promising direction of suburban cottage construction.

Село Княжичі розташоване в 15 кілометрах на схід від Києва, поруч з окружною Броварів.

Ймовірно, в X сторіччі на цьому місці існувала князівська фортеця, звідки пішла назва. Перша документальна згадка - в грамоті польського короля Казимира київському воєводі Юрієві Пацу від 1489 року. В 1709 році власником став Михайлівський Золотоверхий собор, потім князі Шуйські.

Пам'ятки архітектури не збереглися.

Зараз це рекреаційна зона та перспективний напрямок заміського котеджного будівництва.
