Skalat Castle

Map (49.426296, 25.973074)
A very nice from the outside castle. As you approach on the road it looks like a huge castle that will be amazing! Then once you arrive you realize you mostly see the protective walls that would of surrounded the castle and also the towers at each corner. There is not castle standing in the center. Still interesting but you have to pay if you want to go walk around the empty grounds. There appeared to be something in two of the watch towers but we weren’t able to get in… 

What you see is actually a castle that’s around 100 years old. The original castle built in 1640 was destroyed over the years especially during the Hetman Boghdan Khmelnitsky. The castle was bombed in WW2 and only the remains of a couple towers remained. Everything you see was rebuilt during and after the Soviet times.
