Buchach, Historical city in Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine

Located on the banks of the Strypa River at 271 meters elevation, Buchach features architecture from the 14th century and contains numerous religious buildings.

The Buchach Peace Treaty of 1672 marked a pivotal moment in regional politics when the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth surrendered Podolia to the Ottoman Empire.

The Basilian monastery, established in 1712, housed an educational institution that shaped regional scholarship through its teacher's seminary and Saint Josaphat Institute.

The city connects to major transportation routes with access to international airports in Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and Chernivtsi within reasonable driving distance.

The demographic composition of Buchach transformed dramatically from a Jewish majority of 63.5% in 1880 to a 96% Ukrainian population by 1959.
