Manor in the village of Borisov was built in the late XIX century to the owner of the estate of Felix Yastrzhembsky - representative of an ancient Polish family.

Park with garden, situated on two terraces occupy 18 hectares. From the gate to the manor house is laid wide lime avenue. Fruit garden surrounded by a high brick wall. The manor house - a one-storey building, which was once surrounded by beautiful exotic trees and shrubs. Orient House - building the water tower, decorated in neo-Gothic style. Behind the house are located outbuildings: glacier, churn, steam mill, distillery, outbuilding economy.

From the manor house you can go down the wide staircase to the lower terrace where a pond was dug and laid water canals, which served as a decoration for the park, and to divert water to drain marshlands. Through the channels were crossed by elegant bridges on the banks laid comfortable track.

Once a thriving big manor of Borisov has a beautiful natural area. The park was planted with exotic trees brought from Kiev, Warsaw, Riga.

Unfortunately, without proper care all come to desolation. Killed exotic plants, canals overgrown and lost contact with the river, which is why the lower terrace was the swamp. Destroyed beautiful manor building. One can only speculate as to the look of Borisov years of prosperity. Unfortunately, the restoration of an ancient manor and park complex is planned.
