The Pryluky City Cultural House is one of the most prominent buildings in the city.
As the first professional theater stage, Pryluky began to build it in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by the burgher Brodskyi together with the owner of the brick factory Shtonda, but they did not have enough funds to complete the construction. The central two-story part was completed only in 1930.
Currently, the People's Amateur Theater "Rampa" and several other creative groups perform on the stage of the House of Culture. Theater festivals are held here every year, gathering amateur groups from all over Ukraine.
In 2008, a monument to the famous Ukrainian theater and film actor Mykola Yakovchenko, a native of Pryluky, was erected on the square in front of the Brodsky Theater building.

Kachanivka Palace and Park Complex is one of the best preserved landed estates in Ukraine with a luxurious palace in the style of classicism and one of the largest landscape parks in Europe.
The Kachanivka estate got its name from the first owner, the court singer Fedir Kachenovskyi. The creation of the palace and park complex was started in 1770 by the Governor-General of Little Russia Petro Rumyantsev-Zadounayskyi. His palace in the pseudo-Gothic style was radically rebuilt in 1808-1824 by the landowner Hryhoriy Pocheka.
In 1824 the estate became the property of the Tarnovsky family, who owned it until the end of the 19th century and turned it into a center of culture and arts. Taras Shevchenko, Mykola Hohol, Panteleymon Kulish, Mykola Kostomarov, Mykhaylo Maksymovych, Marko Vovchok and Dmytro Yavornytskyi visited them at different times. Mykhaylo Hlinka wrote the opera "Ruslan and Lyudmila" in the altanka, which now bears his name. And Illia Repin was helped to create his most famous painting "Cossacks write a letter to the Turkish sultan" by a collection of Cossack weapons collected by Vasyl Tarnovskyi.
The last owners of the estate were sugar manufacturer Pavlo Kharytonenko and his daughter Olena, who married Baron Mykhaylo Oliv. In Soviet times, a sanatorium operated on the basis of the estate, which severely damaged the palace.
In 1981, the historical and cultural reserve "Kachanivka" was established. It includes a central palace with two outbuildings and a stylized water tower, service houses, Hlinka's Pavilion, Saint George's Church, and a complex of outbuildings.
On the territory of Kachanivka Park with an area of 560 hectares you can see a number of ponds, park bridges, slides of Love and Faithfulness, Romantic ruins and other park structures.
In the restored palace halls there is a museum exposition that tells about the history of the palace, its former owners and famous guests.
The service houses are equipped with hotel rooms, a souvenir shop and a cafe. On the territory of the park you can arrange a picnic - gazebos and barbecues for rent.

The wooden Church of the Assumption in the village of Stara Talalaivka is one of the most beautiful examples of wooden architecture in the Chernihiv region.
The Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built in 1775 as the ancestral tomb of the Mazaraki family, which then owned the village. At the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, the Church of the Assumption was reconstructed under the leadership of former military engineer Volodymyr Buzovsky.
The richly decorated eight-domed church is located on a small hill near the lake. On both sides there are two octagonal towers (in the southern part there is a belfry and stairs leading to the choir).
The iconostasis of the 18th-19th centuries and the wall paintings of the beginning of the 20th century have been preserved.
In Soviet times, the Church of the Assumption was the only active church in the entire district. Now the temple belongs to the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate.

The Hustynia Holy Trinity Convent was founded in 1600 by the Kyiv-Pechers monk Ioasaf on the lands of the Vyshnevetsky princes.
An island overgrown with dense forest, formed by the bend of the Uday River and a swamp, was chosen for the arrangement of the monastery. The location in a difficult terrain, as well as the system of defensive structures with a moat and walls gave the monastery an important strategic importance. It was used as a rebel base during popular uprisings against the nobility, as a result of which it was destroyed.
In 1639, Metropolitan Petro Mohyla of Kyiv took up the revival, and later his monastery came under the care of the Ukrainian hetmans.
On the territory there is a white stone five-headed Trinity Cathedral (1672-1676) in the Baroque style, founded by Hetman Ivan Samoylovych, a refectory of the Resurrection (former Assumption) Church (1695), built at the expense of Hetman Ivan Mazepa, as well as a soft pink Peter and Paul Church (1693-1708) with five sections.
Under Catherine II, the monastery was closed, but half a century later it was restored again at the expense of Prince Mykola Repnin (he is buried in the Resurrection Church).
The Hustin Chronicle (1600-1640) was created in the monastery - the first comprehensive work on the history of Ukraine, which combines the secular and hagiographic history of Rus. Taras Shevchenko visited here.
Excursions are conducted, the clothing of visitors must meet the requirements accepted in the temples of the Moscow Patriarchate.

The fortress had strong oak walls with high hewn towers. A deep ditch stretched along the rampart, which was 10-12 meters high. The Vyshnevetsky Palace, the regimental office, the court, the town hall, the prison, the houses of the colonel and the regimental foreman were located on the territory.
