Khotyn Caves

Natural object

Khotyn Caves near Rivne are a natural monument of local importance (since 1979).

They are located on the slope of the second floodplain terrace of the Horyn River near the village of Khotyn.

The caves interested researchers as early as the 19th century, when drawings were discovered on the walls, possibly dating back to pre-Christian times. Probably, the Khotyn Caves were a refuge for local residents during enemy attacks.

According to legend, an underground passage leads to Rivne.

Klevan Castle

Castle / fortress

The well-preserved, well-fortified Klevan Castle was founded in 1475 by Prince Mykhaylo Chartoriysky on the site of an ancient Rus settlement above the Stubla River.

The castle is surrounded by powerful walls (thickness of 3.8 meters) and a defensive moat, over which a four-arch bridge is thrown. The construction was supervised by the Lviv fortification engineer Ivan Lys, the architect of the Lviv City Arsenal. Two corner towers were also preserved from the original building. In the 17th and 18th centuries, a college of Jesuits was located here. After the reconstruction carried out in 1817 by Kostyantyn Chartoryysky, a Polish gymnasium was opened in the new buildings, then a theological school.

During the Soviet rule, the Klevan Castle housed a boarding school, a mechanization school, and a NKVD post at various times, then it was converted into a treatment and labor ward for alcoholics.

Currently, the buildings are derelict, and projects for reconstruction and development of tourist infrastructure are being discussed. Klevan Castle is cared for by volunteers from the sports and patriotic organization "Shyt".

Korets Castle

Castle / fortress

The ruins of Korets Castle with a distinctive tower over the gate of red brick are the hallmark of the city.

The first wooden fortification was built in the 15th century above the Korchyk river by Prince Ostrozky. Later, the castle passed into the possession of Volyn Voivode Bohdan Koretskyi, who strengthened it with stone walls with towers and bastions, surrounded by an earthen rampart and a moat filled with water from the river.

In the 18th century, the fortress buildings became the basis for the construction of the palace complex of the Chartoryskyi princes. In 1832, the palace burned down and has not been rebuilt since then.

The three-level gate tower, the adjacent ruins of the outer walls of the palace buildings, and the three-pylon four-arch bridge (reconstructed in recent years) have been preserved.

Lenkevych-Valevsky Estate (Pohoryna Museum)

Museum / gallery , Palace / manor

The estate of the Lenkevychi-Valevsky landowners in Hoshcha is an outstanding monument of palatial modernism in the residential architecture of Volyn in the 19th century, the embodiment of modernist aesthetics in Volyn garden and park construction. The palace is an architectural monument of local importance.

At the end of the 18th century, Stanislav Kostka Lenkevych of the Lenkevych-Ipochorskyi family, to whom Hoshcha had belonged since the beginning of the 18th century, founded the Hoshcha estate with an English-style park and a one-story wooden house. In 1852 the estate became the property of Oktaviya Lenkevych, who married Count Mikhal Valevsky. Around this time, the current palace was built in the style of a Swiss chalet - an alpine house with half-timbered facades, an attic floor, a decorative tower and a balcony over a porch in Art Nouveau style. The last owners were the Russian landowners Isakov.

In Soviet times, the palace was greatly modified by adding a second floor, completing the second wing instead of a decorative tower and partially covering the facades with ceramic tiles, but the main facade remained close to the original. For a long time the building was used as a district library.

In 2017, the Lenkevych-Valevsky estate was transferred to the balance of the Hoscha village council, and restoration work began. Now the exposition of the Hoshcha Historical and Ethnographic Museum "Pohoryna" is unfolding here.

Hoshcha Park with an area of ​​7 hectares is a monument of landscape art of national importance. Among its greenery you can find a relict ginkgo tree, which is also called the "dinosaur tree". Also growing are marsh oak with a pyramidal crown, Schwedler's red-leaved maple, Weymouth pine with small silky needles and long narrow cones, Japanese sophora, which resembles white acacia but has no thorns.

Novomalyn Castle

Castle / fortress

The Novomalyn Castle was built on a hill above the Zbytenka River by Prince Svydryhaylo at the end of the 14th century.

Initially, it was surrounded by a moat with water. It was regular in plan, had five corner pentagonal towers connected by walls with loopholes, a bridge and an entrance gate on the north-eastern side. It was rebuilt in the XV, XVII, XVIII centuries. A major reconstruction was carried out at the beginning of the 19th century by the Sosnovsky magnates.

The palace is located along the south-eastern side of the castle. Its outer wall was defensive, connected to the walls of the castle. The building has vaulted basements in several levels. Nearby was a kitchen decorated with a neo-Gothic arcade.

A neo-Gothic style chapel was built on the basis of one of the defensive towers. Each of its facades is pierced by one narrow arrowed window, and high round towers placed at the five outer corners, drawn with linear rust, resemble Gothic pinnacles. The interior of the chapel was decorated with marble carvings made by the master of the manor himself, sculptor Tomash Oskar Sosnovsky (beginning of the 19th century).

Currently, the western pentagonal two-story tower, the half-ruined southern tower, a small section of the defensive wall between them, the chapel (the northern tower of the castle) and the ruins of the former palace are preserved. The ceilings are destroyed, only three rooms of the first floor have preserved cross vaults.
