Buchach Castle, Medieval fortress in Buchach, Ukraine
The castle stands on a hill above the Strypa River, featuring remaining defensive towers and palace walls constructed from local stone materials.
The Buchacki family established this fortification during the 14th century, with subsequent Renaissance-style modifications by the Potocki-Movile family in the 16th century.
The Treaty of Buchach, signed at this castle in 1672, marked a pivotal moment when Poland transferred territories in Ukraine and Podolia to Ottoman control.
Visitors can explore the castle ruins daily, accessing the site through marked pathways that lead from the Buchach town center to the hilltop location.
The castle's towers maintain their original medieval foundation stones, displaying construction techniques from different centuries as the fortress evolved over time.
