The arboretum was presented to her by the crown hetman of Poland, her husband, Xavier Branitsky. The park was built at the whim of the countess, which was impressed by the parks of European capitals. Pit was reflected on him, no less than 4 million rubles!
The hostess of the park had a good taste and spent these funds on arbours, lakes, waterfalls, grottos, sculptures. Also breathtaking when looking at the age-old oaks, majestic pines and American lime trees. In the territory of the park, apart from the Branicki residence, other architectural constructions have been preserved: the Tsar's pavilion (the guests of the royal family of Romanovs stayed here), the colonnade Echo, Ruins, the pavilion Rotunda, the Dance Pavilion, the Chinese bridge.
