Palace and park ensemble in the village of Samchik

The Palace and Park Ensemble "Samchikov" is a museum-estate in the village of Samchik, which is located a little east of Starokonstantinov. The ensemble is considered one of the best monuments of the style of the country. The palace is well preserved to our times, which allowed us to equip a museum-estate here.

The history of the estate Samchik begins at the beginning of the XVII century, when a native of Poland Jan Hoecki laid the first buildings over the river Sluch. Here preserved the palace and park ensemble, which was created as his residence Colonel Gaisinsky Peter Chechel. At his invitation, the best architects, sculptors and gardeners of that time worked here.

The palace with white-stone columns is open to visitors. Guests are greeted by a smiling stone lion and a sad twin brother. The front facade of the palace overlooks the lake. There are about 160 species of trees and plants in the park.
