The majestic palace and park complex in Sokyryntsi was created in the early 19th century by Pavlo Galagan, designed by architect Pavlo Dubrovsky and gardener Iohann Ernst Bisterfeld.

The Empire-style palace with 60 enfilades is connected to two two-storey outbuildings. At the end of the 19th century, the estate was owned by Hryhoriy Galagan, the last representative of the nobility, a public figure and a patron. He gathered a rich art collection in the palace, which he later donated to the Chernihiv Museum.
