Prylbychi

This village was the ancestral estate of the Sheptytsky family. The future Metropolitan of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Roman Aleksander Maria Sheptytsky, was born here. We invite you to pray in the Church of Metropolitan Andrew and the Martyr Clement Sheptytsky. You can see the neo-gothic tomb-chapel (ХІХ) of this outstanding family and learn more about their history in the museum.

Ternovytsia

This was formerly known as the town Bruchnal. Bohdan Khmelnytsky, a Ukrianian Hetman of the Zaporozhian Host who led an uprising against the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, completed his glorious battle near here, which resulted in the creation of a state led by the Cossacks. The defensive Church of the Holy Trinity (1645) has survived to the present day, in which the Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky was baptized.

Yavoriv

This city, located among sycamore forests, has always been famous for its toys and cakes. This city was one of the favorite residences of John III Sobieski. In the city you will find many cultural and historical monuments, the most important of which are: the pearl of the Galician wooden architecture - Church of the Nativity of the Virgin with bell tower (1670), the Church of Peter and Paul (XVII) and the bell tower of St. George Church (1764). Also, you will see the interesting exhibition of the historical and ethnographic museum “Yavorivshchyna” and the museum-estate of Osip Makovey.

Krakovets

Many people know Krakovets as the largest international checkpoint in Eastern Europe. Unfortunately, few people know that there is a majestic neoclassical Church of St. James (1787) and the ruins of a synagogue (ХІХ) located here.

Nakonechne pershe

We invite you to a masterclass on pottery. During this masterclass, you can learn about pottery, especially local works of clay, and buy from the master beautiful products for your own.

Shklo

In the picturesque forests of Roztocze is the famous Spa and mud resort “Shklo”. It has long been famous for its hydrogen sulfide springs, peat mineral mud, and waters. Here you can explore the enclosures with spotted deers and walk in a beautiful park decorated with a picturesque lake with a bridge of love.
