До середини XX століття на валах давньоруського городища зберігалися залишки польської фортеці з великою круглою оборонною вежею, від якої тепер не залишилося й сліду.

Holy Assumption Church
Temple , Architecture
The Assumption Church in Dorohobuzh is one of the oldest in Volyn. It was founded in the 11th century, when Dorohobuzh was the center of a separate principality of the Ryurykovychi princes.
For a long time, an Orthodox monastery operated near the church. In 1577 (according to other sources - in 1582), on the initiative of Prince Vasyl Ostrozky, the Assumption Church was completely rebuilt with the inclusion of fragments of the ancient Rus plinth masonry.
The building is rectangular in plan, single-nave, single-headed, with a rectangular apse strengthened by two corner buttresses.
From 1644 to 1834, the monastery was Basilian (Greek Catholic). During this period, two cell buildings were added to the temple, which have not survived. After the temple was returned to the Orthodox Church, a wooden bell tower was added to it.
The Church of the Assumption is a unique example of Ukrainian architecture of the XI-XVII centuries, in which the traditions of Old Rus architecture are combined with the Baroque style and some later architectural techniques.
