The Khrystanivka Zemska School is located on picturesque cliffs above the Sula River. This is one of the fifty schools of the Lokhvytsia zemstvo that have survived in the Poltava region, built at the beginning of the 20th century according to the project of the artist and ethnographer Opanas Slastion (Slaston), who designed buildings in the style of Ukrainian Art Nouveau, which "correspond to the national taste and acquired features of national originality". Among the characteristic features are large hexagonal doors and windows, which were popularly called "Shevchenko windows".
In 1995, the school was closed. Currently, one wing houses a paramedic-midwifery station.
