12 km from the town of Zhovkva, among the hills of Roztochia, covered with beech and pine forests, at the foot of the Poboynaya mountain, there are the walls of the ancient monastery of St. Nicholas. According to legend, it was founded in the middle of the 17th century by monks - natives of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra Joel and Sylvester. At first, the monastery was located in caves, which are rich in the surrounding mountains, but in the 60s of the 17th century, the construction of stone fortifications with defensive towers began.
