Razumovsky Palace

Razumovsky Palace is the palace of Hetman of Ukraine Kirill Razumovsky in Baturin. The building was created at the very beginning of the XIX century. Today in this luxurious mansion, built in the style of classicism, there is a national museum "Hetman's capital", dedicated to the history of Baturin - the capital of the Ukrainian hetmanship, which experienced its heyday at the end of the XVIII century.

The magnificent palace on the banks of the Seimas River was built as the residence of the Ukrainian hetman, but during the work on the drawings, the title itself was abolished by the Russian emperor. Then the palace was to become an estate from which the former hetman, Kirill Razumovsky, would manage his lands granted to him by the previous rulers of the empire.

The palace was built by architect Charles Cameron in 1803. This is a tall and bright mansion with a classic colonnade and an antique portico framing the entrance.

Subsequently, the palace fell into disrepair, the wings were completely destroyed, and the hetman park was thinned. Life returned to the old building in 2008, when the palace was recreated, its interiors completely reconstructed and transferred to the Museum of the History of Hetmanship.
