Berdychiv, Historical city in Zhytomyr Oblast, Ukraine

Berdychiv spans across the Hnylopiat River, a tributary of the Teteriv River, and contains notable architectural elements including fortress ruins and Saint Barbara's Church.

The settlement emerged in 1430 when Grand Duke Vytautas granted land rights to Kalinik, leading to its establishment as a Lithuanian fortress settlement.

The city maintains a strong religious heritage through the Carmelite monastery complex, which attracted numerous pilgrims to its Virgin Mary icon during the 18th century.

The central railway junction location of Berdychiv connects multiple regional transport routes while supporting industrial activities in machine building and food processing sectors.

French novelist Honoré de Balzac married Eveline Hanska in 1850 at the Roman Catholic church after an extended courtship lasting eighteen years.
