Shcherbatova Palace, 19th-century noble residence in Nemyriv, Ukraine.
Shcherbatova Palace is a two-story noble residence in Nemyriv featuring neoclassical design with stone lions flanking the main entrance on Shevchenka Street. The building sits within a large park containing more than 160 tree and shrub species with walkways for exploration.
The palace was built in the 19th century as a noble residence and took on a new purpose during World War I. Princess Maria Shcherbatova converted it into a military hospital where she worked as a nurse caring for wounded soldiers.
The palace houses an art gallery displaying works by regional artists from Vinnytsia Oblast. Visitors can explore exhibitions that reflect local creative traditions and contemporary artistic expression from the area.
The palace is best explored on foot, with extensive paths throughout the grounds for walking. Wear sturdy shoes as path conditions can vary depending on the season and recent weather.
A three-branched oak tree grows in the park, personally selected by Countess Shcherbatova for her son's wedding celebration. This tree remains a special place where couples visit hoping for blessings on their marriage.
