The Palace of   S.Orlovskiy

At the beginning of XIXth century in the manor of the Polish landowner Severin Orlovskiy a magnificent palace was constructed. Marble sculptural works of the old masters integrally were entered in its halls, in a banquet hall there were unique pictures executed on porcelain. Their feature was that in the solemn cases these pictures were taken out from the frames for the laying of a table. The palace, which was completed in 1810, was one-storied and had three ledges–risalits on the facade. The middle risalit the architect constructed in two floors, and the sides he decorated by a triangular frontons. That’s why the facade, which is completely open for a review, is so expressive. The corps of a service rooms - carriage room, stable, feed room etc. – create the square with the blank wall and the arch of the entrance in the middle. A wall is decorate with the added colonnade of the Toskan order. A park begins beyond the palace. In that side a building has long facade, from which the wide semicircular stairs run down to park. Above them there is a balcony, which bases on massive stone arms. Here there is a main highlight of the Severin palace-park ensemble. A wonderful view of the long glade, which is open in perspective to the valley of the river Riv, is open up from a balcony. The impression of boundless space, which extends on eyes is create. It is not surprising because the Severin park was also projected by the famous Irish gardener and landscape painter Dionisiy Makler. As we know, he much worked on Podillia and created many miracles of park art.
