Lubart's Castle, Medieval castle in Lutsk, Ukraine
Lubart's Castle is a medieval fortress built on a triangular hill between two rivers in Lutsk. The site features three towers, thick stone walls, and a central courtyard where several buildings stand.
Prince Lubart founded the castle in 1340 to replace older wooden defenses from the Kievan Rus period. The structure underwent several conquests and rebuilding phases that shaped its current form.
The castle displays weapons, furniture, and documents that tell the story of life in the Volyn region. You can see how people once lived and worked within these walls.
The location is easily accessible on foot and the pathways on the grounds are well marked. It is wise to wear comfortable shoes, as there are many stairs and uneven stone surfaces.
In 1429, European monarchs gathered here for a major congress, including rulers from the Holy Roman Empire, Poland, Denmark, and Lithuania. This meeting made the castle a significant diplomatic center in Eastern Europe.
