This medieval building was erected in 1690 Chernihiv Colonel Yakov Yefimovich Lizogub. Perhaps it was here that in 1708 stopped Peter I, when staying in Sedniv at Ya Lizogub.

Architecture kamennitsy is quite simple - it is a one-storey building with a large basement. It is in the form of Ukrainian Baroque. Kamenica consists of four adjoining rooms and entrance hall, located in the middle, which is very characteristic of a typical Ukrainian "hut".

Initially Kamenica has performed both residential and defensive functions. And then it began to be used as a utility room, after the 19 st. brothers Ilya and Andrey Lizogub has reconstructed and erected a new manor house. At the same time Lizogub supplemented Sednev Kamenica decorative Pseudo bunk toothed defense tower above the porch of the house, and buttresses, which gave the structure a romantic look.

From inside the building, you can see the impressive high ceilings of living rooms that have two floors - the main and basement. They are virtually identical, the difference between them is only in the presence of a cache located under the porch basement. This hideaway is a small room with two niches, where the archive is stored Lizogubov family. The lower floor also houses the entrance and in the basement.
