Terebovlia Castle

Castle / fortress

The ruins of the Terebovlia Castle are located on a hard-to-reach mountain in the northwestern part of Terebovlia.

Fortifications existed here even in princely times, when the settlement was owned by Prince Vasylko Rostyslavych. By building a new royal castle in 1366, the Polish king Kazymyr III approved Terebovlia as a border fortress of the Polish state.

The last rebuilding of the fortress was carried out in 1631 by the city mayor Oleksandr Balaban. It had an irregular shape, consisted of three towers, defensive walls, ditches and ramparts on the most vulnerable northern side.

The Terebovlia castle survived several Tatar raids. It became famous during the heroic defense in 1675, when the commandant's wife Zofiya Khshanovska managed to raise the fighting spirit of the city defenders who were preparing to surrender, and the castle withstood the Turkish siege (in the 18th century, grateful residents erected a monument to Khshanovska, which was later lost and restored in 2012 year).

The last Tatar siege in 1687 turned out to be fatal - the Terebovlia castle was burned and was not rebuilt after that. In the 1930s, the ruins were preserved, a park was laid out on the defensive ramparts (commemorative plaques with the names of patrons were mounted in the castle wall). The best-preserved oval tower (bastei) "Rondel", from which a wonderful panorama of the city opens.
