Abstract

The authors of the article focus on the urban activities of the princes of Zbarazh of the senior branch. Special attention is paid to cities whose location and fortification are directly associated with representatives of the princely family. An attempt is made to find the principle that guided the Princes when choosing the city and choosing the method of fortifications. A representative sample of cities is formed, which clearly shows the dependence of the natural location, chronological boundaries of the location and the type of fortifications, based on which three types of fortified cities of Zbarazh are distinguished. In the second part of the article, the authors analyze the state of preservation of cities and give recommendations for preserving the remnants of urban defence complexes
