Castel Kankiv

Located on the eastern outskirts of Vynohradiv, at the foot of Chornoyi Hory.

The castle had the shape of a quadrangle (46.9 x 44.8 m) with massive square towers at the corners, had a large entrance gate. The fifth tower was above the gate. Fragments of intermediate walls can be seen in places in the middle of the castle. It is said that an underground passage led from the castle to the city. The traditional legend of any fortress in Vynohradiv still has some basis: at least, a 12-meter-long passage was found - and then ordered to be covered with clay.

The building has survived only in the form of ruins, its destruction continues to this day, including by local residents.
