Radomysl Castle is a historical and cultural complex created in 2007–2011 by Olga Bogomolets MD, a Ukrainian doctor and public activist. Since 2011, Radomysl Castle is part of the Council of Europe’s cultural project called Via Regia, its purpose is to promote cultural exchanges by means of tourism between European countries. The main attraction of Radomysl Castle is the Museum of Ukrainian home icons.

Radomysl Castle’s

landscape park was created in

accordance with modern

environmental requirements.

Human interference in the environment was minimal. There

are some natural fresh water

springs in the park, which

provide a very refreshing drink. The vast majority

of trees and flowers growing in the park are rare

species.

On 29 October 2009, near the place where the paper mill stood, a monument to Yelisey Pleteniecki was unveiled. This is perhaps the only monument in Ukraine on the surface of moving water.

In 1615 Archimandrite Yelysei Pletenetsky, a Galician nobleman by background, established the first printing press in Kyiv at the Kyivan Cave Monastery Press, which became an important center of publishing in Ukraine.

Saints Cyril and Methodius (826-869, 815-885) were two Byzantine Christian theologians and Christian missionaries who were brothers. Through their work they influenced the cultural development of all Slavs, for which they received the title "Apostles to the Slavs". They are credited with devising the Glagolitic alphabet, the first alphabet used to transcribe Old Church Slavonic.
