The greatness of the family of Pototskis should emphasize by the palace, built in Tulchin in 80-90’s years of the XVIIIth century. The ensemble, which was built by the architect Lakrua, was a two-storied building with wings, which connected by the arch galleries.

All complex was on a plateau, the park was around and the avenues was laid. The contemporaries of Stanislav-Shchensniy Pototskiy - the owner of Tulchin that time – said that it was the royal court yard, not the court yard of the ordinary magnate. There was not such palace in Ukraine.

The biographer Nemtsevich wrote about palace: “The furniture, pictures, crystal, bronze - the riches, which are brought from all parts of the world, - all this was magnificent. I never saw a richer interior”.
