The castle, built at the end of the 15th century as a wooden one, is located on a hill in the small village of Nahirianka near Yahilnytsia, and an architectural monument of local importance.

[1] The stronghold was rebuilt in brick at the turn of the 16th/17th century by Stanisław Lanckoroński, Voivode of Rus and Great Hetman of the Crown.

The castle was recaptured by Ensign Sieniawski in September 1673, and in January 1674 Hieronim Lanckoroński set out from it against the Turks under the command of Voivode Jan Potocki.

The castle was built on a high and steep[4] hill that was difficult to conquer, and its skillful bastion fortification made it an impregnable fortress.

The castle included residential and outbuildings, it was defended from the south by two bastions, the entrance led through a gate preceded by a bridge over a deep ditch.
