Zolochiv Castle is a palazzo in fortezza residence founded in 1634 by Jakub Sobieski, father of King John III. Today it is a branch of the Lviv National Art Gallery at 5 Ternopilska Street in Zolochiv. The bastion fortifications, earthen ramparts and moat survive, and the ravelin was rebuilt in 2007. Inside stand two palaces: the Grand Palace (72 by 22 metres), with an exhibition on the castle's history alongside furniture, porcelain and paintings, and the octagonal Chinese Palace, which houses the Museum of Eastern Cultures with porcelain, Buddhist sculpture, Japanese prints and oriental carpets. The grounds also hold the famous inscribed stones bearing still-undeciphered symbols.
