Drohobych Museum “Prison on Stryiska” — a former prison that preserves eerie evidence of the repressions of the twentieth century
Villa Halperniv is a luxurious estate of the early twentieth century, built for a wealthy Jewish family during the oil boom.
💡 Interesting fact: Drohobych is one of the few cities that has preserved a salt factory since the Middle Ages, and it was salt that once made it rich and famous throughout Europe.
