The small village of Pidzamochok is a suburb of Buchach.
It was founded in the late 16th - early 17th century by the magnate Yan Buchachskyi-Tvorovskyi. In the development of the doctrine of the defense of Poland's borders, the Buchachskyi-Tvorovskyi built a new castle here, on the high bank of the Strypa, which was supposed to protect the approaches to Buchach from the north. In 1764, Pidzamochok was first mentioned in documents as the property of Mykolay Buchatskyi.
In addition to wonderful panoramas and majestic castle ruins, there is a small road service complex with a cafe and gas station.
Невелике село Підзамочок - передмістя Бучача.
Засноване в кінці XVI - початку XVII століття магнатом Яном Бучацьким-Творовським. У розвиток доктрини оборони кордонів Польщі Бучацькі-Творовські заклали тут, на високому березі Стрипи, новий замок, який повинен був захищати підступи до Бучача з півночі. У 1764 році Підзамочок вперше згадується в документах як власність Миколая Бучацького.
Крім чудових панорам і величних замкових руїн, тут є невеликий комплекс дорожнього сервісу з кафе і автозаправкою.
Tvorovsky Castle
Castle / fortress
The picturesque ruins of the Tvorovsky Castle adorn the high bank of the Strypa River in Pidzamochok near Buchach.
The inscription above the main entrance tower indicates that the castle was built in 1600 by Voivode Yan Buchachsky-Tvorovskyi. The Renaissance portal of the building is decorated with a coat of arms with crossed arrows, the origin of which is unknown, since it does not correspond to the coat of arms "Abdank" of the Buchachsky family, nor to the coat of arms of the "Pylyava" family of the Potocki family, who owned the castle later (perhaps this is the ancient coat of arms of the Buchachskys or the coat of arms of the illegitimate son of the owner of Buchach ).
The castle protected the approaches to Buchach from the northeast, and also served as a country residence for local feudal lords. It was repeatedly destroyed, in the 18th century it was abolished by the Austrian authorities. Currently in a neglected state.
A fascinating panorama of the Strypa valley opens from the ruins.
