The prosperous dynasty redeems the village in 1810 and with the passage of years takes root near the Kiev province. <p>By the end of the 18th century, the Choecki decided to build a <strong>patrimonial nest with an incredible beauty architecture</strong>that combines the luxury and wealth of aristocrats.</p><p>The originality of the building is that the talented architect Kulikovsky chose <strong>unusual solutions for building a family palace</strong>.
