History

The square was founded in the 18th century. Its construction is formed taking into account the preservation of the species perspective on 1 Maya Street (now a separate street of Oleg Mikhnyuk), on the architectural complex Detinets.

There is a puppet theater (Pobeda Avenue No. 135), a trade house (architect Yu. Dmytruk) with a restaurant (Stary Chernihiv) on the ground floor (Pobeda Avenue No. 137), a house of the regional consumer society (Pobeda Avenue No. 139) and the Desnyansky District Committee and the Communist Party Ukraine and the district executive committee (architect A. Sergeev). In the late 1980s, it was planned to extend Pobeda Avenue in the direction of Rokossovsky Street, and in this connection the adjacent section to Alexander Molodchy Street from the east was built up in a block of high-rise residential buildings.

Now the trade house serves as an office building, and the Desnyansky district court of the city of Chernihiv and the Department of Education of the Chernihiv City Council are located in the former house of the district committee and the district executive committee. The rest of the construction of the square is a manor house, adjacent to Pobeda Avenue from the north to Lubomir Bodnaruk, 1 May and Alexander Molodchy streets.
