 In medieval times Castle Hill was built!  https://steemit.com/travel/@olga.maslievich/visits-to-interesting-places-in-ukraine-mukachevo-the-city-of-legends

 Once it was the mighty castle,  now it is a very interesting place for tourists!

There are many  legends of the castle! That's the legend of the well:

It is located under the old tower. Then the castle owned by Prince Fedor Koryatovych. He commanded to dig  deep well in case of long siege.

The depth of the well is 85 meters,  in diameter at the top is 2.5 m. At that time it was difficult waterwork. So people thought that devil built it! 

Legend says: subordinates dug for several years, and there was no water! Prince promised two bags of gold, who find water there. Then came a low dark man. He said whether Prince will give two bags of gold? Then he jumped into the pit! Something was moved. There was a roar and smell of sulfur! And suddenly appeared water! But the prince did not have much gold. Then he tricked the devil! He commanded  sew small bags and put in each bag one coin! The devil was furious! How are people able to fool him! Say still  to hear the roar of the angry devil in this well. The devil was furious! How are people able to fool him! Say still  to hear the roar of the angry devil in this well.
