Cedar Chamber
Another name — Cottage or residence of Sheptitskiy.
Metropolitan Sylvester (Sembratovych) built the cedar house with chambers in 1892. The mineral springs were the reason for the selection of this place. Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky actively developed the resort-residence, especially after the fire of 1916 (the pine house was also burned). At that time new buildings appeared, and three pools with mineral water were built. The narrow gauge railway Broshniv - Osmoloda was constructed, too(was destroyed).
Here princes of Austria-Hungary and Poland came for treatment and rest. During the Soviet period some Soviet officials came for hunting here. By and by the resort fell into decay.
Today this place is under renovation: the main building resembling the former cedar house was built here, the greek-catholic center was found and the church decorated with the mosaic wall painting was erected, too.
The stone grotto has been preserved, which firstly had a deer instead of a cross.Address: Osmoloda, Pidlyute tract -
