Yaropolets

Pyotr Doroshenko Mausoleum

  After Hetman Pyotr Doroshenko of Right-Bank Ukraine was overthrown he was given Yaropolets in 1684 by Regent Sofia where he lived as an honorary exile. Doroshenko died in Yaropolets and was buried in the village. In 1838 his descendants built a mausoleum over his grave. This original version was later destroyed and the mausoleum you see today was built in 1999, although the original tombstone has survived.
