Volodiyevsky Tower

Castle / fortress

The castle in the village of Novosilka (old name Novosilka-Kostyukova) was built in the 16th century by representatives of the noble family of Kostyuk-Volodiyevsky (it is believed that someone from this family inspired Henryk Senkevych to create the image of Mr. Volodiyevsky).

The castle was quadrangular in plan, with four towers. It was located on top of a hill and was washed by the waters of the Khromava River on three sides. In 1672, the castle was destroyed during the Turkish invasion and has not been restored since then. It remained in ruins until the middle of the 19th century, after which it was dismantled for building materials for the construction of a church and a road.

Currently, only the ruins of one of the towers remain from the castle, which in some literary sources is called the Volodiyevsky Tower.
