Storm cloud. Yelenskikh Manor
In the Kletsky district, in the town of Tucha, the manor house of the Yelenskys has been preserved. The place is located right on the highway R – 43 and therefore it is very easy to get to the monument.
During the time of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the 1630s, the town of Tucha began to belong to the Yelensky family. This is an ancient noble family that had a coat of arms."Korczak." The estate belonged to the Yelenskys until the arrival of Soviet power in 1939.
The first owner of these places was Pavel Yelensky, whose portrait has survived to our time. The Tucha estate was large and included several villages and towns: Kopatkevichi, Dunaichitsy, Luchitsy and Manchevichi. In addition to this estate, the Yelevichi had other estates in the Mozyr district and in the Novogrudok voivodeship.
After Pavel Yelensky, Tuchai was run by his son Jan Yelensky. Yan held the position of a zemstvo clerk in the Mozyr district. Then he was a zemstvo judge. He was elected ambassador to the Sejm of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from the Mozyr district in 1669 and in 1674. He was also elected a deputy to the Tribunal of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in 1726.
Subsequently, she passed the cloud to his son named Anton Yelensky (1702-1731). He served as a subordinate in the Mozyr district. The next owner of the estate was Anton's son Gideon Yelensky (1712-1798), who was the castellan of Novogrudok in 1780-1795.
At the end of the 18th century, the Yelenskys built a one-story stone palace in Tucha. The building was built in the classical style with a portico decorated with four columns of the Ionic order. A park has been planted next to the palace. A lawn has been created in front of the Palace and a temple has been erected. An alley led from the entrance gate to the Palace. During the 19th century, the Yelenskys erected new farm buildings in the estate.
During the First World War, the palace was looted. Collections were looted, including the Slutsk belts, of which there were several dozen. After the Peace of Riga in 1921, the town was part of the Polish state until 1939. In the early 1920s– the manor and the palace were restored after the war. At that time, the owner of the estate was Marian-Kazimir Yelensky (1864-1922). The last owner was his daughter, Jadwiga Jelenskaya.
A stone palace, several outbuildings and a partial park have been preserved to this day.
