General information about Pedunculate oak (Kherson)
The age-old oak in Shevchenkivskyi Park is one of the symbols of Kherson. The oldest park in the city was laid out by order of Prince Potomkin Tavriysky in 1785, but in the 19th century the trees were cut down, turning this place into a parade ground, where horse races were held.
In 1869, the park was revived on the initiative of the vice-governor Denys Karnovych. Before the revolution, the park was called Denysovsky in his honor.
The compositional center of the park is a huge petioled oak, according to legend, planted by Emperor Oleksandr II, although the tree was planted by Karnovych. The rays of eight shady alleys diverge from the tree in different directions, one of which leads to the church of Saint Fedir Ushakov.
Віковий дуб у Шевченківському парку - один із символів Херсона. Найстаріший у місті парк був закладений за розпорядженням князя Потьомкіна Таврійського в 1785 році, але в XIX сторіччі дерева вирубали, перетворивши це місце на плац-парадну площу, тут же проводилися кінні перегони.
В 1869 році парк був відроджений з ініціативи віце-губернатора Дениса Карновича. На його честь парк до революції називався Денисовським.
Композиційним центром парку є величезний черешчатий дуб, за переказами, посаджений імператором Олександром II, хоча дерево посадив Карнович. Від дерева в різні боки розходяться промені восьми тінистих алей, одна з яких веде до храму Святого Федора Ушакова.
