Count Ksido Palace (Historical Museum)

Castle / fortress , Palace / manor , Architecture , Museum / gallery

The palace of Count Kostyantyn Ksido, who served as adjutant of General Stessel, was built in Khmilnyk in 1913-1915 according to the project of the architect Ivan Fomin on the basis of a Lithuanian defensive castle of the 16th century.

The octagonal fortress tower (1534), which served as a mosque minaret during the Turkish rule, as well as fragments of fortifications that give the palace a medieval look from the side of the river, from the stone bridge across the Pivdennyi Buh (1915, architect Ivan Fomin). A striking contrast to them is created by the front facade, made in the Renaissance style and decorated with a colonnade.

Until recently, a hotel operated in the premises of the palace, now the building is in a state of disrepair.

In 1976, a local historian-enthusiast opened a historical museum on public grounds in the Turkish Tower.

Goering Headquarters "Steinbruch"

Castle / fortress

The "Steinbruch" Headquarters of the commander-in-chief of the German Air Force, Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering during the Second World War.

It was located 5 kilometers northeast of Kalynivka, next to the military airfield in Hulivtsi.

The construction of the Goering Headquarters began in 1941 at the same time as the Hitler and Himmler Headquarters located nearby. The complex consisted of two underground bunkers connected by a tunnel, a guard barracks, a dining room and several utility rooms. Since Goering was rarely here, the Headquarters was mostly used as a Luftwaffe command post.

In 1944, before the retreat, the Germans blew up the bunkers. Impressive ruins have been preserved.

Kholonevsky Castle-Palace

Palace / manor , Architecture

The castle-palace in Ivaniv traces its history from the 15th century, when Prince Zbarazkyi built the Yaniv fortress.

In the 16th century, the castle was rebuilt according to the bastion system. The fortifications had the shape of a square, at the corners of which there were bastions with small towers, and there was a deep moat with water around it.

In the 18th century, when Yaniv passed into the possession of the Polish magnates Kholonevsky, the need for fortifications already disappeared. Count Adam Kholonevsky built a palace on the site of the fortress, using some of the walls and towers of the medieval castle. The palace was made in the style of the transition from baroque to classicism.

The Column Hall with fat columns, the Marble Hall with walls decorated with white marble, stucco rosettes on the ceilings, stairs to the second floor have survived from the old interiors to our days.

All this can be seen from September to June, as the Kholonevsky Palace is now occupied by a boarding school for orphans and children from low-income families.
