Winery / brewery
The old wine cellar in Berehove, over 300 years old, is being used for its intended purpose again thanks to a family of enthusiasts for the revival of Berehove winemaking: Oleh and Tetyana Havrilchenko.
According to legend, the wine cellar was carved out of the rock by hand by captured Turks. The restored cellar is one of the few preserved in Berehove from the 17th century.
According to traditional technologies, vintage wines are produced here from local grape varieties of the Berehove grape region. The most difficult to produce are Bianca and Traminer, but Riesling, Merlot and Zweilgate have an equally interesting taste. Muller-Thurgau wine is considered the pearl of the Old Wine Cellar collection.

Castle / fortress
The ruins of the medieval castle of Kankiv are located on the slope of the hill in the western part of Vynohradiv.
In the 10th century, there was a Slavic settlement of Kanko at this place, which was called Uhocha by the Hungarians. In the 12th century, the Hungarian king Heyzo II made Uhocha the center of a separate county. After the Mongol-Tatar invasion, the stone Ugochan castle was rebuilt, which guarded the Transcarpathian salt route. In 1317, the castle of Kankiv, then belonging to the rebellious feudal lord Beke Barshi, was destroyed by the troops of King Karl I Robert.
Soon the king declared Sevlush a royal city and built a new castle in 1329, which then passed to Baron Peter Pereni. The baron soon moved to the palace, and gave the Ugochan castle to Catholic Franciscan monks, who built a church and turned the fortress into a monastery-hospital. In 1556, the Franciscans were expelled by Protestants, and two years later the castle was destroyed by Austrian troops and has not been restored since then.
Picturesque ruins have been preserved, from which a wonderful panorama of the city opens. The possibility of restoration is being discussed.

The first Franciscan monks appeared in Vynohradiv in the 15th century, which gives grounds for dating the monastery.
In the same century, the Franciscans received their order from Baron Pereni, the castle of Kankiv. In the middle of the 16th century, when the reformation movement began to spread in Transcarpathia, the order was disbanded.
Half a century later, the Franciscans returned and rebuilt the monastery and the church of Saint. Francis. Initially, it was made in Gothic forms, but after it was destroyed by the Tatars in 1717, it was restored in the Baroque style.
In the 19th century, the temple was abandoned and partially rebuilt. In Soviet times, a historical museum was located here.

The Gothic Church of the Heart of Jesus in the village of Bene is an architectural monument of national importance.
The first written mention of the church, located on the main road on the right bank of the Borzhava River, is found in 1333, but most likely it was an older structure, on the site of which the monumental stone Catholic Church of the Heart of Jesus was built at the end of the 14th century.
The temple probably had defensive significance, as the small windows of the massive tower look like loopholes, the northern wall of the temple has no windows at all, and the rest of the walls have small pointed windows. The single-nave basilica is reinforced with buttresses.
In 1593, the villagers joined the reformed faith, the church was rebuilt.
In the 70s of the 17th century, the temple was reconstructed after the destruction during the Poles' suppression of Prince Ferents Rakotsi rebellion. As a result of the last reconstruction of the 19th century, the tower, which was originally in the form of a Gothic spire, was rebuilt in the Baroque style with a central decorative lantern.
In 1999, restoration was carried out by Hungarian masters, which returned almost the original Gothic style to the temple. The roof of the building, as well as the buttresses, are covered with shingles (wooden tiles).
The Church of the Heart of Jesus is active
