Budaniv castle and convent, Medieval fortress in Budaniv, Ukraine.

Budaniv castle is a stone fortress with high defensive walls, round corner towers, and an interior courtyard. Renaissance-style buildings surround the courtyard on two levels.

The castle arose between the 14th and 15th centuries as a defensive fortress. In the 16th and 17th centuries, the Potocki family oversaw major renovations.

The fortress shows features designed for both defense and residential living. It reflects how noble families displayed their power through such structures.

Visitors reach the castle by regional bus from Ternopil to Budaniv village. Multiple daily services provide flexibility for arrival times.

The castle successfully resisted Cossack uprisings in the 17th century. The local Jewish community played an active role in its defense.
