Attractions of Denyshi

The vertical wall of the granite canyon of the Teteriv River rises 20-25 meters above the shore. It stretches for several kilometers along the river, but is partially hidden by the waters of the reservoir, which was formed in the 1970s as a result of the construction of a dam 2 kilometers upstream from the village of Denyshi.

It is used as a Rock Climbing Wall for training climbers, who are usually based in the nearby "Denyshi" sanatorium. The most picturesque places are in the area of the dam.

On the opposite side of the river is an oak grove with ancient oaks that survived after the felling of the ship forest.

A half-ruined three-tiered tower towers over the ruins of the Tereshchenko Palace in the village of Denyshi, right next to the track, giving the ruins some resemblance to a medieval castle, from which it got its current name.

The palace was built in 1910-1191 according to the project of the architect Pavlo Holandskyi, using progressive architectural and construction methods at that time. Thus, during construction, concrete was widely used, and shaped elements were made with brick plaster. At that time, the estate belonged to Nadiya Tereshchenko, the daughter of a sugar factory, active State Councilor Fedir Tereshchenko.

After the Bolshevik coup of 1917, the Tereshchenko palace was looted. Despite severe destruction, the surviving walls of the palace still retain traces of rich stucco decorations and luxury.
