Palace / manor , Architecture
A wonderful neo-Gothic palace in the style of English medieval castles is located near a landscape park laid out in the 18th and 19th centuries in Leskove by the Dakhovsky landowners.
In 1912, Tadeush Dakhovsky, who returned from Europe, decided to transform the family estate into a type of English estate. The palace was rebuilt in its current form by the Polish architect Tsekhanovsky. The building impresses with its strictness and at the same time elegance of architecture. The central element of the composition is a square donjon tower among round and polygonal toothed towers. The interiors of their time were richly decorated with picturesque canvases and sculptures.
Nearby is a lake that separates the park with the "island of love".
After the Ukrainian revolution at the beginning of the 20th century, a sanatorium was located in the manor, then it was transferred to the military. Currently, the complex is owned by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the territory is under protection, formally the access of tourists is prohibited, but exceptions are possible.
