Verkhovichi. The Roth Estate.
The small town of Verkhovichi in the Kamenetsky district traces its history back to the 16th century. In those days, this region belonged to the Kopat family. Here was their estate during the time of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, from which Vasily Kopat exhibited horses for the army during the war. Then it was the domain of the Voina family. After the third partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795, the estate became part of the Russian Empire.
In the 19th century, Verkhovichi became the center of the Brest district municipality of the Grodno province. During this period, noble Roth family become the owners of the estate. They owned the estate until 1939. The Roths were actively engaged not only in the issues of their estate, but also in the economy and problems of the town itself. Since 1878, Ivan Roth has created a cattle farm in the estate. He participated in various exhibitions and the animal from the estate was repeatedly awarded with medals and awards. A brewery and a brewery (distillery) were built.
After the Peace of Riga in 1921, the town became part of the Polish state. After the arrival of Soviet power in 1939, the estate's property was confiscated - these are 20 yards, where there were about 100 people and the Paris Commune collective farm was organized.
The Manor Park with a pond and the stone farm buildings of the brewery and a three-story warehouse have remained from the former estate to our time. The buildings are still used for household purposes.
