The Savior-Transfiguration Monastery in Mhar is one of the most revered Orthodox shrines in Ukraine.
It was founded in 1619 by Metropolitan Isaya (Kopynsky) at the expense of Princess Rayina Mohylyanka Vyshnevetska, who owned Lubny in the 17th century. According to legend, angels indicated the place for the construction of the monastery to the princess.
In 1684-1692, on the site of the first wooden church, at the expense of hetmans Ivan Samoylovych and Ivan Mazepa, the stone Savior-Transfiguration Cathedral was built (architect Johann-Baptist Sauer).
The exterior of the temple combines the ancient Ukrainian style of the 11th-12th centuries with the Baroque-Renaissance architecture of Western Europe, with a lot of non-canonical decor.
The complex also includes a bell tower in the baroque style (1837-1844), the Annunciation warm church (now Saint Athanasius) in the pseudo-Byzantine style (XIX century), the abbot's and brotherhoods (18th century), the two-level church of Saint Athanasius (now Annunciation, 1891 year).
Patriarch Athanasius of Constantinople, who died during a visit to his beloved monastery, and other church figures are buried here. The monastery enjoyed the support of Ukrainian hetmans and Russian tsars, it was visited by Ivan Mazepa, Peter I, Taras Shevchenko, Oleksandr Pushkin and others.
In Soviet times, a disciplinary battalion was stationed here, warehouses were located, then a pioneer camp. Most of the frescoes were damaged (in memory of these events, the shot icon of Saint Oleksandra was preserved).
The Annunciation in Mhar was returned to the church in 1993, and restoration was carried out. Monks conduct tours.
In 1990, the "Holodomor-33" Memorial of People's Grief was built nearby on Hill Zazhura in the form of a large bell on a mound, which offers the best view of the monastery.

Currently not used as intended. On the site of the old gas station, there is now a modern gas station, a cafe, a motel and a roadside bazaar. In the building of the bus station, there is a cafe-museum "Queen of Gas Stations", in which, according to legend, episodes were filmed in the buffet.

Palace / manor , Architecture , Museum / gallery
The palace and park complex in Berezova Rudka was built in 1838 by landowner Platon Zakrevskyi, a historian and ethnographer.
The palace in neo-baroque style was built according to the project of the architect Yevhen Chervinsky on the site of a burnt wooden house of the 18th century.
The estate consists of an elegant two-story palace with a view terrace and two bay windows, two one-story outbuildings and a large park (45 hectares) with more than 40 species of trees and shrubs.
In the 1840s, the brothers Viktor and Platon Zakrevsky repeatedly hosted the poet and artist Taras Shevchenko. Here he began to write the poem "Caucasus" and also painted portraits of the Zakrevskys. It is believed that Shevchenko was secretly in love with Platon Zakrevskyi's wife Hanna, dedicating to her the poem "If we met again", which became a famous romance.
Since Soviet times, the estate has housed an agricultural technical school. A monument to Taras Shevchenko has been installed in the central flower bed.
In one of the wings there is a historical and local history museum, which presents photos and documents of the Zakrevsky family, furniture, dishes, books and paintings.
Employees conduct tours of the palace, the park and to the pyramid-tomb of the Zakrevskys.
