Курган "Чорна могила" знаходиться у сквері біля ПК Будівельників.
Згідно з переказами, на цьому місці було поховано легендарного засновника Чернігова князя Чорного.
За старовинною легендою, донька князя викинулася з вікна княжого терему, щоб не стати дружиною хозарського кагану, який оточив місто.
В 1872-1873 роках археолог Дмитро Самоквасов розкопав курган, виявивши поховання X сторіччя з багатим скарбом зброї: два шоломи, кольчуги, два мечі, шабля, більше десяти копій, наконечники стріл, сокира, стремена, удила. Датувати поховання дозволили 2 золоті візантійські монети часів Василя І Македонянина.
На кургані "Чорна могила" встановлено пам'ятний обеліск.
