Attractions of Mohyliv-Podilskyi district

The best view of the Moldavian fortress of Soroky opens from the opposite bank of the Dniester, from the outskirts of the Ukrainian village of Tsekynivka.

The Soroky fortress was founded in 1499 by the Moldavian master Stefan the Great, and rebuilt in stone in 1543-1546. The round fortification structure with five towers has a symmetrical shape.

The fortress of Soroky controlled the river trade route that ran through the Dniester and resisted the raids of the Tatars. From the Ukrainian bank of the Dniester, the castle in Soroky looks particularly convincing, although it does not give the impression of being impregnable.

The estate of Field Marshal Petro Vithenshteyn, a hero of the Franco-Russian War of 1812, is located in Bronnytsia, a suburb of Mohyliv-Podilskyi.

After retiring for health reasons, the general decided to settle here, as Bronnytsia is famous for the source of healing mineral water "Bronnychanka".

He built a German-style manor house on a high mountain above the Dniester next to the Babina Durka cave. A manor house with a high tower and a gatehouse have been preserved, as well as a landscape park, on the territory of which the "Hirskyi" children's sanatorium is now located.

The gazebo in the park offers a wonderful view of the Dniester canyon and the city of Mohyliv-Podilskyi, which is spread out in the valley.

The interactive museum of weaving in Busha opened in 2019 as part of the artistic project "Ways of Woven Busha". The project involves reproducing the full process of making a woven product using traditional methods and training in various weaving techniques for everyone. It is a branch of the State Historical and Cultural Reserve "Busha".

The exposition of the Weaving Museum presents various weaving machines and other equipment for making fabrics, ancient carpets, rugs, weaving looms, towels, and many other products of folk art masters of Podillia.

The Busha Museum of Weaving offers visitors to try to work at the looms on their own, in order to experience all the intricacies of the weaving craft and the fabric production process.

The Yampil Museum of Fine Arts presents a collection of works by contemporary Ukrainian artists, a collection of women's and men's clothing, and a numismatic collection by  Volodymyr Lev.

The museum exposition presents products of traditional crafts of Yampil region: embroidery, Easter eggs, weaving from the villages of Klembivka, Dzyhivka, Tsekinivka, Pisarivka, Borzhky and others.

The Yampil Museum of History and Local Lore is a department of the local Museum of Fine Arts. The exposition tells about the nature, archeology, history and culture of the Yampil region.

The monument to the Moldavian landlord Yeremiya Mohyla , the founder of the city of Mohyliv-Podilskyi, was erected in 1995 for the 500th anniversary of the city.

At this place, in 1495, Yeremiya Mohyla built a castle, which he later gave to the Polish count Stefan Potocki as a dowry for his daughter. The new owner founded a fortified city here, which he named Mohyliv in honor of his father-in-law.

In 2011, a park with flower beds and a children's playground was laid out around the monument of Yeremiya Mohyla.
