Swan Lake Park

Park / garden

"Swan Lake" park in the center of Rivne is all that remains of the estate of the Lubomyrsky princes.

Until the middle of the 20th century, in the place where the "Avanhard" stadium is now located, there stood the Empire-style Lubomyrsky Palace, built on the basis of the medieval castle of Princess Mariya of Rivne, the widow of Prince Semen Nesvytskyi.

In the 18th century, the Lyubomirskis laid a palace park with the participation of the architect Yan Yakub Burhinyon. At the beginning of the 19th century, it was redesigned in the English style by the famous park builder Dionysius Makler (Mickler). After the First World War, the manor fell into disrepair. The palace burned down, and the park was cut down.

After the Second World War, the park was partially restored and named Komsomolsky, but the name "Swan Lake" stuck in the people, because swans live on a small pond in the center of the park.

Trinity Church

Temple , Architecture

The Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity and Saint Michael the Archangel was built in Tuchyn in 1614 at the expense of the nobleman Mykola Semashko.

The temple burned down several times, in particular during the Liberation War of 1648-1654, when Tuchyn was captured by Maksym Kryvonos Cossacks. After the signing of the Andrusiv truce in 1667 and the return of the Poles, the church was restored.

The temple suffered the greatest destruction during the Second World War, as it served as a shelter for the defending Red Army soldiers, then for the Germans. After this war, the Trinity Church was not restored - it is still half-ruined.

Trinity Derman Monastery

Temple , Architecture

Trinity Derman Monastery is an ancient Orthodox monastery with a pronounced defensive character.

The Derman Monastery was founded on the spurs of the Mizoch Range at the end of the 15th century by Prince Vasyl Ostrozky. It served as the country residence of the prince, in connection with which fortifications were erected - a stone castle surrounded by walls with loopholes and a moat with water. The entrance was guarded by a massive gate tower, later transformed into the bell tower of the monastery.

Later, the Trinity Church and monastery cells were built by Vasyl-Kostyantyn Ostrozky.

In 1575-1576, the Derman monastery was managed by the first printer Ivan Fedorov, in 1602 a printing house and a religious school were opened.

In 1627-1633, the abbot of the monastery, which became Greek-Catholic, was Meletiy Smotrytskyi, the author of "Slavic Grammar".

In the 19th century, the Russian government took the monastery from the Greek Catholics and handed it over to the Orthodox monks from Ostroh.

Currently, the Derman Monastery is active and belongs to the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate. The complex includes the Trinity Cathedral, the Church of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, the Church of Fedir Ostrozky. A residential building with a church in honor of Saint Innocent of Irkutsk is under construction.

Yanush's Furnace

Architecture

"Yanush's Furnace" is the name of the only structure that survived from the palace of Yanush Ostrozki in Mezhyrich near Ostroh.

The palace was located next to the Holy Trinity monastery-fortress. All that remains of it is a huge fireplace-type stove with large arched openings, a pyramidal roof and a tall chimney with Renaissance decoration. The fire was lit in the center, the side passages could be closed during the cold season.

It is assumed that the palace guards warmed themselves near the Yanush Furnace. It could also be used during banquets to roast large animal carcasses on spits.
