👋 Welcome to ancient Ostroh — a city that in the 16th century was the intellectual and cultural center of Volyn.
History was made here: it was in Ostrog that the princes laid castles, founded academies and opened printing houses, which changed the whole region.
Today you will visit some of the most interesting locations:
Majestic Ostroh Castle, where artifacts of the era of princes are kept
The famous Ostroh Academy, which gave the world the first complete Slavic Bible
Authentic Church of the Epiphany, which belongs to UNESCO heritage
This is only part of the route — there are nine other equally impressive places waiting for you.
💡 Interesting fact: in Ostroh Castle there is a unique artifact — the Ostrog Bible of 1581, the first complete edition of the Bible in Church Slavonic language.
We wish you to enjoy the journey of Ostrog, because this city combines the spirit of medieval grandeur and the warmth of a modern Ukrainian city.
