The National Literary and Memorial Museum of Hryhoriy Savvych Skovoroda is located in the former estate of the Kovalevsky landowners, where the great Ukrainian philosopher died in 1794 (according to other sources, in the building of the former church-parish school).
The house has a memorial room - a "quiet cell", where Skovoroda loved to work and in which he ended his life.
In a cozy, well-planned park, maintained in perfect condition, preserved memorable places associated with the great thinker. This is the skeleton of a huge 700-year-old oak on the shore of a pond with a memorial sign (1972, sculptors Lyubov Zhukovska, Dmytro Sova), under the cover of which wrote a philosopher, a well and a huge wooden landlord's barn, on a wide lawn in front of which events organized by the museum are held.
Not far from the manor house in the park is the grave of Hryhoriy Skovoroda. On the stylized tombstone under the roadside stone (1972, sculptors Lyubov Zhukovska, Dmytro Sova) carved a laconic and surprisingly capacious, worthy of a great philosopher author's epitaph: "The world caught me, but did not catch." A modest monument to Hryhoriy Skovoroda was erected at the entrance to the square (1972, sculptor Ivan Kavaleridze, architect Vasyl Hnyezdilov).
During the large-scale Russian invasion in 2022, the museum building was destroyed by a direct hit from a Russian missile. Part of the exposition was destroyed, but the most valuable exhibits were not damaged.
