Palanok Castle, Medieval fortress on volcanic hill in Mukachevo, Ukraine
The castle contains three distinct sections with the high castle, middle castle, and low castle connected through an intricate network of stone passageways.
Prince Fyodor Koryatovich transformed the original wooden structure into a stone fortress between 1396 and 1414, adding defensive walls and round towers.
The Mukachevo History Museum within the castle walls displays collections of regional artifacts, traditional wooden church exhibits, and historical military equipment.
The castle remains open to visitors throughout the year, with guided tours available in multiple languages through the three castle sections and underground passages.
The castle features an 85-meter deep well that, according to local tales, required a deal with supernatural forces to access water during construction.
