Once part of Ostroh’s 16th-century defenses, the Tatar Gate had two floors, an attic, and arrowslits around its perimeter. Much of it was lost over time, but after a partial restoration in 2018, it became a tourist and exhibition space.

Pidhirtsi Castle, built in 1635–1640 by Italian architect Andrea dell’Aqua, is more palace than fortress. Surrounded by landscaped parks, it once held major art and armor collections. One of Ukraine’s most haunted sites. Beauty, history, and mystery in one place.

1/ March 10 — Ukraine's National Anthem Day "Ukraine Has Not Yet Perished" has a powerful history. Some claim the Polish anthem inspired it, but Pavlo Chubynsky wrote the lyrics in 1862 in Kyiv, long before that idea emerged.

In 1761, a rotunda with his statue crowned the well. During the full-scale war, the sculpture was removed for restoration, and in Feb 2024 it returned.
