The round tower, built around the 16th century, is fortified on three sides with buttresses. The impregnable tower impresses with its beauty. The Ostroh fortress is the only one decorated with magnificent attics, cornices and ornaments.
The walls are decorated with carved roses on shaped prongs. Acanthus branches above decorative hollow arches. All beauty is the result of the painstaking work of Italian masters https://karpaty.love/places-objects/zamky-ta-fortetsi-zahidnoi-ukrainy/62-ostrozkyi-zamok.html #Castle #UkraineArchitecture

Ostroh Castle rises in a picturesque place - on a 20-meter hill, next to which the Viliya River flows. In ancient times, the fortress was surrounded by a deep moat filled with water. It was possible to get to the middle with the help of a suspension bridge. The architectural ensemble of the castle includes four buildings: the Epiphany Church-fortress, the Gate Tower, the Round and the Brick Towers. https://karpaty.love/places-objects/zamky-ta-fortetsi-zahidnoi-ukrainy/62-ostrozkyi-zamok.html #Castle #UkraineArchitecture

Each castle has its own unique history, but Duben Castle is legendary! One of the oldest: built in the 10th century. One of the most impregnable: the swamp around the castle. One of the richest in Europe: emperors, kings and hetmans often visited here. He belonged to wealthy families, kept chests filled with jewels and... was sold due to a card debt. Yes, it had a casino for a while. https://tamtour.com.ua/1528 #Castle #Retro #UkraineArchitecture

Unfortunately, the estate could not be saved during the Second World War. All property was looted by looters, and due to the partition of Poland, the castle was left without a single owner. The estate passed into collective ownership and became a school for future tractor drivers. Later, the estate became the House of Creativity of the Union of Architects. Thanks to which the castle does not turn into a final ruin. https://karpaty.love/places-objects/zamky-ta-fortetsi-zahidnoi-ukrainy/64-svirzkyi-zamok.html #Castle #UkraineArchitecture

The Pidhoretsky brick castle in the French style was built for the Konetspol Hetman in 1635-1640, most likely by the French military engineer Guillaume le Wasser de Beauplan. The three-story palace was probably built by the royal architect Andrea Del Acqua. Pidhoretsky Castle is an architectural delicacy of the European level, a wonderful combination of a magnate's residence and a defensive fortress. https://castles.com.ua/gor.html #Castle #UkraineArchitecture
