Three wells, Hydrological natural heritage site near Subotiv village, Cherkasy Oblast, Ukraine
The Three Wells are three natural water sources located near Subotiv village in Cherkasy Oblast. Each spring feeds independently into its own well, forming a small cluster of fresh water outlets.
Wells were constructed in the 17th century to supply water to soldiers during the Khmelnytsky Uprising. The site became known for providing relief to those in need during a time of conflict.
Local stories connect these water sources to Cossack figures and traditions that shaped the region. Visitors can sense how deeply this place is woven into the community's sense of history.
The site is reached through the National Historical and Cultural Preserve of Chyhyryn, which manages access. The Subotiv Historical Museum nearby offers visitor information and additional context about the area.
Each of the three wells draws from a completely separate underground source, making them geologically distinct. This natural separation creates different water characteristics at each location that visitors can observe.
