General information about Velyki Lazy

The village of Velyki Lazy is located on the M-06 (E-50) highway between Uzhhorod and Seredne.

It was founded in the 13th century as Halambhaza by people from the Transcarpathian village of Kholmets. It was owned by the Hungarian Drugety magnates. In the middle of the 19th century, Velyki Lazy belonged to the composer Nandor Ploteni, who established wine production here, as well as built an exquisite palace and laid out an exotic park. Now the Ploteni estate houses the Uzhhorod District Center for Children's Creativity.

The Ascension Church (1823) and the grave of Nandor Ploteni have been preserved in the village cemetery.

Село Великі Лази розташоване на трасі М-06 (Е-50) між Ужгородом і Середнім.

Засноване в XIII сторіччі як Галамбхаза вихідцями із закарпатського села Холмець. Було власністю угорських магнатів Другетів. В середині XIX століття Великі Лази належали композитору Нандору Плотені, який налагодив тут виробництво вина, а також звів вишуканий палац і розбив екзотичний парк. Зараз в садибі Плотені розміщується Ужгородський районний центр дитячої творчості.

На сільському кладовищі збереглася Вознесенська церква (1823 рік) та могила Нандора Плотені.

Ploteni Palace

Palace / manor , Architecture

An elegant palace in the neoclassical style was built in Velyki Lazy in 1896 by the Hungarian composer and local landowner Nandor (Ferdinand) Ploteni.

In the middle of the 19th century, he developed a large wine and alcohol production in the village. In 1870 he received the title of count. Having learned to play the violin from his friend, the Hungarian musician Ezhen Remni, Ploteni later became the first violinist of the Hungarian National Opera. At the end of the 19th century, he returned to his Velyki Lazy estate, where a small palace and park complex was built for him.

Currently, the estate houses the Center for Creativity and Sports. The Ploteni Museum is located near the school. The composer's grave is preserved in the village cemetery.
