General information about Zviahel Fortress Ruins (Zviahel)
Fragments of the fortress walls and the reconstructed defense tower of the Zviahel fortress are located on the high bank of the Sluch River in the very center of the city.
The construction of the castle was started in the 16th century by Prince Kostyantyn Ostrozky on the eastern borders of his Volyn domains. In 1600, a church was built nearby (now the Palace of Culture named after Lesya Ukrayinka is in its place). The castle was destroyed in 1648 during the Liberation War of the Ukrainian people.
During Soviet times, the territory of the castle was turned into a recreation area, the reconstructed fragments of defensive structures have nothing to do with the original. The foundations of the preserved walls can be seen from the river side.
Фрагменти фортечних стін та реконструйована оборонна башта фортеці Звягель розташовані на високому березі річки Случь у самому центрі міста.
Зведення замку у Звягелі було розпочато в XVI сторіччі князем Костянтином Острозьким на східних кордонах його волинських володінь. У 1600 році поруч був збудований костел (зараз на його місці Палац культури імені Лесі Українки). Замок зруйновано в 1648 році під час Визвольної війни українського народу.
За радянських часів територію замчища було перетворено на зону відпочинку, реконструйовані фрагменти оборонних споруд не мають нічого спільного з оригіналом. Підмурки стін, що збереглися, можна оглянути з боку річки.
