Ostrog and around

Ostrog – now a small town in Rivne region. In 1914 – 17 cent. it was the residence of the princes Ostrozki – the richest and most influential Orthodox magnates of Volyn.

There are numerous monuments of princes Ostrozki preserved as in Ostrog, and in its vicinity. I think we should look at them.
