Berestove

In the past it was a princely village of Berestiv to the east from the early city of Kyiv.

In the village was located a suburban palace of Volodymyr the Great where the Grand Prince died.

Many times mentioned in the chronicles "porches"-galleries joined separate buildings into a mansion complex, representing a characteristic part of the princely dwelling.

There were buried Yuri the Long-arm (1157), a daughter of Vladimir Monomakh, Euphimia (1138) and Gleb of Kiev (1171).

Another notable landmark of the place is the Church of Saint Nicholas at the Askold's Grave.
