Monument
The monument to the Ukrainian hetman Ivan Mazepa and the Swedish king Charles XII was opened in Dihtiarivka in 2008 to mark the centenary of the first meeting of the two allies in the war against Tsar Peter I of Moscow.
It was on this hill near the village of Dihtiarivka in 1708 that Mazepa and Charles met for the first time in person to discuss the details of a military-political union.
The first memorial sign on the hill was installed by local historians in 1998. 10 years later, on the initiative of the leadership of the National Council for Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine, a monument was erected in the form of a granite slab in the shape of a bell, crowned with the coats of arms of Ukraine and Sweden, on which portraits of the hetman and the king are placed.
There are 100-meter steps from the road to the top of the hill.

Temple , Architecture
The Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin, which stands on a hill in the center of the village of Dihtiarivka, was built in 1708-1710 at the expense of Hetman Ivan Mazepa. It was in the Church of the Intercession that the great Ukrainian Hetman prayed on the eve of the decision to side with King Charles XII against the Tsar of Moscow in the Northern War.
The five-domed stone temple was built in the Ukrainian Baroque style. The influence of the late Renaissance and early classicism can be felt in the exterior decoration.
During the Soviet era, the Intercession Church was looted and partially destroyed.
In 2009, restoration work was started, during which one of the aisles of the church was restored. However, due to a lack of funds, the work was suspended. In 2023, the Orthodox Church of Ukraine announced its intention to use Ivan Mazepa's charity fund, created in 2022, to rebuild the church.
