A rock temple with an enigmatic relief and the memory of the 1654 defence.

On the village edge stands a rock temple with a relief still defying dating: a bird in a tree, a person in prayer, a deer. Historian Volodymyr Antonovych discovered it in 1883. Nearby are castle ruins: in 1654, when sotnyk Zavisny fell in battle, his wife Olena blew up the powder magazine together with the enemy. All of it is now the Busha reserve with a park of stone sculpture.

The rock temple opens on request — ask the reserve's administration.
