Zemska School

Architecture

The two-class Zemska school in Hiltsi was built in 1911 according to the project of the famous architect Opanas Slastion (Slaston), who used elements of traditional Ukrainian architecture in his works.

The one-story brick building with ornamental masonry has tall hexagonal windows and a magnificent tented tower in the style of Ukrainian Art Nouveau.

The guardian of the school was the head of the public education department of the district zemstvo administration, Prince Kochubey, whose farm was located nearby. Volodymyr Hres (Otaman Gonta), who in 1920 became one of the leaders of the rebel movement in Poltava Region, was the first teacher of the Gilets Zemska Primary School.

The building is still in good condition and is used for its intended purpose.
