Yurtsevo. The Lubomirsky manor.

The first mention of the town of Yurtsevo dates back to the 16th century, when it belonged to the Belarusian magnates Sangushka. Since the 18th century, the estate in Yurtsevo has been owned by no less wealthy and famous princes of Lyubomirsky. At the beginning of the 20th century, the estate was owned by the Hrabovskys. In 1877, the artist and composer Napoleon Orda visited Yurtsevo and left us an interesting drawing of the Lyubomirsky manor.

The palace was built on the bank of a small Skupey creek. The estate of Konstantin Lyubamirsky was a large architectural ensemble with a palace, farm buildings and a park. The palace - the castle and the park have survived to our time. According to some historical sources, it is known that there really was a medieval monastery here. The Lubomirsky Palace is a two-story building, rectangular in plan. The architecture of the palace is stylized as a defensive castle. The landscape is inclined to the river and on the side of the park, on the edges of the palace facade, two massive octagonal towers are built. The layout of the building is corridor. In the towers, there are round halls on each floor. A beautiful landscape park with centuries-old oaks and huge poplars has been preserved around the palace. In the lowland behind the park there is a stream with a pond. Vitebsk regional hospital operates on the territory of the manor.
