Hey! I'm visiting castles outside of Lviv, located in the Golden Horseshoe: 

Olesko Castle – Birthplace of the famous Polish king Jan Sobieski, who broke the Siege of Vienna and freed Austria from the Turks. Most of all I loved the wild park and the beautiful landscape surrounding the castle.

Pidhirtsi Castle – Dubbed the Galician Versailles for its impressive beauty, the castle was home for many aristocratic families. During Soviet times it was turned in a TB hospital and pretty much destroyed, so nowadays you can mostly enjoy the outside. It's also home to the ghost of the White Lady.

Zolochiv Castle – and its adjoining building, the Chinese Palace, has the greatest collection of artifacts. It was beloved by Jan Sobieski's wife - Marie Casimire, so the family stayed here frequently.  I loved how fortified the castle was.
