This magnificent castle dates back to the 12th century. It was constructed by the counts of Formbach.

Dating back to the Middle Ages, the building of the Dormition Brotherhood printing house in Lvov, founded by the famous Russian first-printer Ivan Fyodorov, who is more known for the creation of the first typography in Moscow.
Closer to our time, it was home to the Galicko-Russkaya Matitca, the Russian Youth Section, the Society of Russian Ladies and a number of other organisations of the Russians of Galicia.
