Groholski Palace

ooh Volodarsky, 41, Vinnitsa, Vinnitsa, Ukraine, 21000

Description:

The founder of the palace, M. Groholsky, was a magnate from Poland. His father, Franziszek Xavierius Grochalsky, a Bratslav judge, took possession of the Fridays with a dowry of his wife Anna. He did not have his own property, but this did not prevent him from wisely disposing of his dowry.

His son, in 1760, founded a monastery of the Dominicans and a church in Vinnitsa. In his village Tereshki they built a chapel.

In order to build a whole estate, Turkish and Tatar prisoners were involved in the work.

As a result of the works, a one-storey palace was built, in the form of a square, which was intended for defense and life in it. On both sides, on the corners, two-storey towers rose. A little in the distance were built 2 single-storey square towers. A few hundred meters from the castle stretched ditches and ramparts that surrounded the square with a wall.

Later, after the death of M. Grokhalsky, the estate was reconstructed. After reconstruction, the estate began to include a pavilion and outbuilding, which are located in the landscape park, as well as the palace itself.
