Bronetsky Castle

Castle / fortress

Bronetsky Castle is one of the least known and most poorly preserved castles in Transcarpathia.

It was mentioned for the first time in 1273 in the deed of the Hungarian king Laslo IV Kun, when it was recaptured from the Rus by Master Petro Chaka. The last mention dates back to the year 1296, when King Andrash III instructed Zhupan Mykhaylo to reliably guard the Bronetsky Castle.

Several legends are associated with the castle, in which the knight Brinda appears on a three-legged horse, the horseshoes on whose hooves were nailed backwards. In some legends, the knight is described as an evil prince who terrorized the local population and robbed neighbors, and in others - as a noble robber who punished a nobleman.

It is not known who destroyed the Bronetsky castle and when. Only the outline of the foundation and individual stones scattered among the trees remained on the mountain.
