Plodovaya. The estate of the Drutskys-Lyubetskys.

In the village of Plodovaya in the Mosty district, a stone Orthodox church and the remains of the estate of the princes of Drutsky–Lyubetsky have been preserved to this day. The town of Plodovaya is located near the village of Cherlena, and it is under the name of Cherlena that this place is mentioned in historical sources. The place was first mentioned in documents in the 16th century during the time of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.


The local estate belonged to Prince Konstantin Kroshinsky. In 1513, the prince married his daughter Anna to magnate Janusz Sapieha, and so the place passed to Sapieha. Then the owners changed several times and the Sapieha bought the estate again. And in 1799, Prince Frantishek Drutsky–Lubetsky (1741-1802) acquired the Cherlena estate. This family was the owners in these places before the arrival of Soviet power in 1939.


 A wooden palace was erected, which was covered with shingles. The family coat of arms was made in the palace above the porch. The next owner was Frantishek' son, Francis Xavier (1778-1846). And then to his grandson, Alexander Ksaveryevich (1827-1898). Then to Alexander's son, Vladislav Alexandrovich Drutsky-Lyubetsky (1864-1913). His daughters were the last owners of the estate: Janina and Teresa Drutsky-Lyubetsky.


 The wooden palace has not been preserved to our time. A stone gates with columns and a yellow brick fence, a park and several outbuildings have survived to this day. The palace was a wooden one-story building. A regular type of park.
