Klevan

Klevan is a mysterious and romantic urban-type settlement that can surprise with its landmarks and leave romantic memories for lovers. Archaeological excavations and historical research give grounds to state that a settlement existed on the city’s territory as early as the 12th century. However, the first mention of Klevan dates back to 1458, when the real estate and property of Prince Chartoryskyi are listed.

There are many interesting places in the settlement worth attention: the half-ruined Chartoryskyi Castle, built in 1561; Bezdonne Lake, which does not freeze even in winter and has healing properties; the Annunciation Church, from which underground tunnels have been laid; the Tunnel of Love, which binds lovers’ hearts for life.

Each of these places is worth attention, because many interesting stories and mysterious people are connected with them. The destruction of the castle is linked to a curse for unrequited love; the remains of a church are said to lie at the bottom of Bezdonne Lake, and the old church hides secrets that archaeologists are actively studying. Kleman is an unusual place that deserves the attention of every tourist.
