Chernelytsia Castle, Renaissance castle in Chernelytsia, Ukraine.

The castle spans across two hectares with defensive walls reaching six meters in height and containing four angular bastions at its corners.

Built in 1659 by Bratslav governor Michał Jerzy Czartoryski, the fortress endured multiple attacks from Turks, Tatars, and Vlachs in 1672 and 1676.

The front facade displays the Pogoń coat of arms of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, while the western facade features the Piława coat of arms.

The castle remains are accessible year-round, though visitors should exercise caution due to the deteriorating condition of certain structural elements.

During the Polish-Ottoman War of 1685-1690, this fortress stood as the largest eastern stronghold of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth along the Dniester River.
