Селище Клевань розташоване на березі річки Стубла, в 25 кілометрах від Рівного в бік Луцька.
Ймовірно, існувало в XII столітті під назвою Коливань. Вперше згадується в 1458 році як власність князів Чорторийських.
Зберігся багато разів перебудований замок, закладений в 1475 році Федором Чорторийським на місці давнього городища: стіни, дві кутові вежі, арочний міст, два флігелі (1817 рік). В радянські часи тут було училище механізації, потім ЛТП, що негативно відбилося на стані об'єкта. В даний час Клеванський замок орендований приватною компанією під зобов'язання реставрації та розвитку туристичної інфраструктури.
Інші пам'ятки Клевані: Церква Різдва (1777 рік), Благовіщенський костел (1610-1630 роки) - усипальниця Чорторийських.

Klevan Castle
Castle / fortress
The well-preserved, well-fortified Klevan Castle was founded in 1475 by Prince Mykhaylo Chartoriysky on the site of an ancient Rus settlement above the Stubla River.
The castle is surrounded by powerful walls (thickness of 3.8 meters) and a defensive moat, over which a four-arch bridge is thrown. The construction was supervised by the Lviv fortification engineer Ivan Lys, the architect of the Lviv City Arsenal. Two corner towers were also preserved from the original building. In the 17th and 18th centuries, a college of Jesuits was located here. After the reconstruction carried out in 1817 by Kostyantyn Chartoryysky, a Polish gymnasium was opened in the new buildings, then a theological school.
During the Soviet rule, the Klevan Castle housed a boarding school, a mechanization school, and a NKVD post at various times, then it was converted into a treatment and labor ward for alcoholics.
Currently, the buildings are derelict, and projects for reconstruction and development of tourist infrastructure are being discussed. Klevan Castle is cared for by volunteers from the sports and patriotic organization "Shyt".

The Orthodox Church of the Nativity of Christ is located in the center of Klevan next to the castle.
It was founded in 1777 as a Greek Catholic church. The stone church of the Nativity of Christ was built at the expense of Adam Chartoryysky. It has characteristic forms of classicism, decorated with a hollow pilaster portico of the Tuscan order with a triangular pediment, finished with a semicircular attic.

Tunnel of Love
Natural object
A pergola (a natural fence made of trees or bushes) is called the "Tunnel of Love" in Klevan, which grew above the railway tracks near the "Klevan" station in a very unusual way. For a moment, the authorities stopped cutting the trees, and the thick crowns formed an improvised grotto.
In the warm season, this green avenue serves as a filming location for local newlyweds - visiting the "Tunnel of Love" is considered a good omen.
