There is an interesting attraction in Chernihiv, which is often forgotten, because it is located away from both Val and Boldin Hill, which are visited most often. Even those who live in hotels near the Desna River (prestigious "Pridesnyanskaya", seedy "Bryansk" and newfangled "VIP" "Park Hotel") do not suspect that there is something to see and where to walk nearby (Shevchenko St. 97). Be sure to take the time to visit this place and take some photos as a keepsake.
Manor (house) of Grigory Glebov, built in the 19th century in the style of a Gothic castle. Glebov himself was a great original (being the leaders of the nobility, he dressed, either as a knight, or as a musketeer - boots, hats with feathers, etc. ). According to one of the legends, the marshal of the nobility of the Chernigov district built a house in the form of a castle to attract the attention of a French woman, whom he met in Paris.
But whatever it was, one of the most romantic buildings in the city has survived to this day.
A dwelling can tell a lot about a person: Glebov built his romantic palace in neo-Gothic style, decorating it with a watchtower. A linden alley led to the estate, along which there were large boulders (there are none). It turned out to be an interesting Gothic castle, against which you can shoot historical films, interesting music videos, and make unforgettable photo shoots. Now outdoor marriage ceremonies are held here, which is very beautiful and stylish, because the building is really wonderful and very photogenic. Unfortunately, the park around is run wild (although this gives its zest), but still, I would like the house to be used in a more secular direction. Now the Scientific Research Institute of Agricultural Microbiology of the National Academy of Sciences is located here, but this is not good for the building, as it is collapsing.
It would be better if there was something for social events - here you can hold weddings and banquets, seminars, concerts of medieval music, make a permanent gallery and a “themed” restaurant, maybe a small hotel, create a kind of cultural, entertainment and hotel complex useful for the city and guests. So that the house is full of interesting people and ideas, because it deserves it. In the meantime, you can only walk around the castle, climb the terrace, and dream - imagining yourself as a participant in a jousting tournament or one of the musketeers. Dreamy place this gothic corner.
