Taras Shevchenko Monument

Monument

The first full-size monument in Ukraine to the outstanding Ukrainian poet and public figure Taras Shevchenko was erected in Romny in 1918 (according to other sources, in 1919).

The city of Romny at that time was already under the control of the Bolsheviks, who actively supported the cult of the "revolutionary poet". The author of the monument is the famous sculptor Ivan Kavaleridze. The sculpture, which depicts Shevchenko sitting in a thoughtful pose, is considered the most "human" monument to the poet.

A model of this monument has been installed in Kyiv, on Andriyivsky Descent.

Tereshchenko House

Architecture

The Tereshchenko House in Hlukhiv is the oldest surviving building of the architectural heritage of the family of famous sugar millers and patrons.

Prosperous merchant Artemiy Tereshchenko applied to the city authorities for permission to build a new two-story stone house in the historic center of Hlukhiv back in 1855. He was able to complete the construction of his Hlukhiv residence in the architectural forms of historicism only in 1866.

In the interior, the original decor is partially preserved: stucco ceilings, carved doors, tiled stoves, as well as stairs to the second floor, made in the technique of cast iron decorative casting.

In 1931, the All-Union Research Institute of Hemp was located here. Now it is the Research Station of Bask Cultures (Institute of Bask Cultures), where a hemp variety that does not contain narcotic substances was recently created. In the lobby, there is a small exhibition of hemp products: ropes, ropes, fabrics, clothes, shoes, etc.

Ukrainian Banking Academy

Architecture

The Ukrainian Academy of Banking of the National Bank of Ukraine occupies a complex of historical buildings in the center of the city of Sumy.

The first educational building is located in Taras Shevchenko Square (Soborna Street), in the former premises of the First Female Gymnasium. It belongs to a large group of Neo-Gothic buildings of the 19th-20th centuries in the city.

The main building of the academy was built only a few years ago on the central Petropavlivska Street, on the site of the former estates of the descendants of the founder of Sumy Hryhoriy Kondratiev. Until 1917, one of the city's fire brigades was located here, then various institutions. All the architectural nuances of the historical building have been carefully preserved in the reconstructed building. Instead of a fire station, a tower with a clock was built, which notifies the city about various celebrations at the academy.
