A romantic palace with a watchtower and pointed windows decorates the former estate of Countess Paraskeva Shterych (Shterychova), born Donets-Zakharzhevska.
The Basy estate is located on the southern outskirts of Sumy (Zarechny district), on the banks of the Psel River. Countess Shterych inherited the estate in Basy from her father Mykhaylo Donets-Zakharzhevsky at the end of the 18th century. For the construction of the palace, she invited the famous Slobojan architect Oleksandr Palytsyn, who developed a project of an unusual in these parts asymmetrical building in the pseudo-Gothic style. The home church of the Ascension was provided for in the palace.
After the death of the countess, the estate passed into the possession of her brother Andriy Donets-Zakharzhevsky, then to his daughter, who sold it to the widow Hamaliy. In the 1890s, the palace was reconstructed in the English Neo-Gothic style according to the project of Karl Sholts. The last owners were Borys Zolotnytskyi and Samuyil Shteyner.

Monument
The fountain-monument "Sumka" (Bag), installed in 2008 on one of the central pedestrian streets of Sumy, symbolizes the legend of the founding of the city.
According to legend, in the summer of 1655, the first Cossack settlers from the town of Pruda in the Kyiv region, led by Otaman Kondratyev, found three hunting sums with coins at the place where a small river flowed into the Psel. The river was named Sumka, and the city founded here was called Sumy.
Sculptor Oleksiy Shevchenko recreated the legend in stone: a bag with money hangs over a well with water, from which water also flows. A new urban tradition has appeared - to wet the face, bags and wallets with "magical" water from the well.
