The cas­tle is one of the old­est Ukrain­ian fortress­es. There is no exact date cre­at­ed, but it is known that already in the 11th cen­tu­ry the fortress exist­ed. An inter­est­ing fea­ture is that the fortress was built on a moun­tain of vol­canic ori­gin. Pre­vi­ous­ly, it was the pro­tec­tion of the city from the inva­sion of ene­mies, and now it is an incred­i­bly valu­able his­tor­i­cal mon­u­ment, in which excur­sions are con­stant­ly held.
