Krzemieniec Castle - ruins of a castle from the 13th-14th centuries, rebuilt in the 16th century, located in Krzemieniec. In the 12th century, a wooden stronghold of the Ruthenian dukes was erected here, the wooden fortifications of which were replaced with brick ones in the 13th-14th centuries. The castle was fortified so strongly that in 1226 it could not be conquered by King Andrzej Węgierski, and in 1241 by the Tatars [1]. In 1321, Krzemieniec and Łuck came under the rule of Lithuania, and later of Poland, as the seat of the castle starosty in the Volyn voivodeship. In the years 1409-1418 his cousin Świdrygiełło was imprisoned here by prince Witold for allying during the Great War with the Teutonic Knights against Jagiello and Witold. The imprisonment was not difficult and the fugitive of the Teutonic Knights, Konrad of Falkenberg, who managed the castle, allowed Świdrygielle to receive guests, among whom the dukes Daszko Ostrogski and Aleksander Nos decided to help Świdrygielle escape. They sent two men who were part of the castle crew and on the night of March 24, 1418 they opened the gates of the castle, into which 500 people of Prince Ostrogski broke. The entire crew was murdered, including Konrad of Falkenberg, who defended himself with a sword in his hand. In 1536, Queen Bona received the Krzemieniec starosty from her husband, Sigismund the Old, and on her initiative, the castle was rebuilt into a Renaissance one and the fortifications were strengthened. Later, the castle belonged to successive Polish kings. In October 1648, after a 6-week siege, Cossack colonel Maksym Krzywonos captured the castle and demolished it. The unrebuilt castle fell into ruin that remains to this day. pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zamek_w_Krzemie%C5%84cu
