Defensive ramparts went west from the castle, at the end of which, near the railway station, the ruins of another building are mentioned.

According to legend, the underground dungeons were to stretch from the castle under the river to Bilche-Zolote in the area of Borshchiv.

In 1655, during the Polish-Russian War, after several days of defense under the leadership of Voivode Piotr Potocki, the castle was captured by Cossack-Moscow troops marching on Lviv.

After the capture in 1672, it was the residence of the Turkish bashes until 1683, after which it was recaptured by the Polish army under Hetman Andrzej Potocki.

In the 18th century, the south-west wing was rebuilt, turning the towers into ledges and building an observation deck.

After the Second World War and the annexation of the city to the USSR (1945), a transport base was built nearby, and the castle itself, unprotected and unused, was subject to further degradation, which continues to this day.
