Palace / manor
The estate in Budyshche was built in 1828 by Baron Pavlo Enhelhardt (son of Senator Vasyl Enhelhardt, hero of the Second Turkish War) as his summer home (the Engelhardts' main residence was in Vilshana).
A park with a cascade of ponds and ancient oak trees was laid out nearby. According to legend, the young Taras Shevchenko, who served Enhelhardt as a Cossack in 1828-1829, hid his children's drawings in the hollow of one of the oak trees. This oak is preserved in the territory of the landscape park, it is called Shevchenko`s.
During Soviet times, the manor housed an eight-year school, which occupies the premises even now.
The park was reconstructed, arches, benches, and fountains were built to reproduce the atmosphere of Shevchenko times.
