Bibrka is a real treasure for tourists. It was first mentioned in the chronicles in 1211, and probably formed from a settlement of beaver hunters, which is probably where its name came from. The animals were caught for the nearby princely Zvenigorod.
Modern times are simply full of both sad (such as the extermination of local Jews by the Nazis) and triumphant (the UPA underground stole an entire… printing house from under the noses of the same Germans!) pages. So there is something to see and experience here. Not far away, by the way, there is an entire amusement park with attractions for any child or adult taste. In addition, they managed to preserve a significant part of the industrial potential here. So for an investor or just a visitor to Bibrka, it makes sense not only to look at the beaver monument, but also to take a closer look at this interesting community.
