The ancestral tomb of the Zakrevsky family in the unusual shape of an Egyptian pyramid was built in Berezova Rudka at the end of the 19th century by the famous lawyer Hnat Zakrevsky, who was in the service of Emperor Oleksandr III, was a member of the Masonic lodge and admired Egyptian culture. According to one version, he was also Russia's ambassador to Egypt.
The chapel-mausoleum built by him over the grave of his ancestors most likely has a secret symbolic meaning. The funeral building combined the classical forms of the Egyptian pyramid and pagan paraphernalia with Orthodox symbols. Thus, the entrance to the chapel was "guarded" by a statue of the goddess Isis brought by Zakrevsky from Egypt, and an Orthodox cross was placed on the portico above the entrance. In the center of the hall was an Orthodox altar with a large stone cross.
Hnat Zakrevsky himself died in 1906 in Egypt, his embalmed body was brought to Berezova Rudka and buried in the mausoleum.
Pyramid in Berezova Rudka is one of the three pyramidal temples in Ukraine. During the Soviet rule, the chapel was desecrated and looted, now the building is in a bad condition.
