Palace Zabotina, Small Rostovka
Likely, the palace in the village of Mala Rostivka that are presented in, is the most mysterious building, which I ever had to write.
The village is located in remote places, so tourists here rarely look to. And for good reason - it is one of the palaces of Vinnytsia region that best survived to our times. But there is one "but" - information about this building almost none. Limited to a few lines from Wikipedia.
History mysterious palace Zabotina
It is known that the first mention of Little Rostivku dates back to distant 1495 year. And in 1901 began construction of the palace. Customer Russian army was General Zabotin. And that`s all. What happened vicissitudes witnessed the events was the palace - is unknown. Also hides the origin story Zabotina where he came and where he received funds to build the house. Local residents say that the bricks for the building were taken up with Poland. So we can assume that in general not ekonomyv materials.
Small Rostivky residents also say that in the turbulent 1990s, a businessman bought the estate. He started to make repairs, put the palace guard. But it somehow did not go, so as a businessman appeared suddenly, so unexpectedly and still here somewhere.
Statues at Palace are different from the overall architecture, so we can assume that they set recently. However, some lions look quite authentic.
What can be seen today in the palace
Witnesses say that in the middle of the building is an icon of Our Lady of Berdichev. Perhaps palace has anything to do with Catholicism.
If you get to the palace, be sure to look for the "Armchair master." It is possible that once there gathered representatives of some Masonic lodges and secret rituals performed some. Interesting? Then let`s go to the Small Rostivky!
