Ostrog is a town in western Ukraine, located in the Rivne region. It is a town with a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages, known primarily for its religious and cultural traditions, as well as for its beautiful historical monuments.

Ostrog was one of the most important centers in Rus in the Middle Ages, and during the Renaissance the city gained a great reputation thanks to the family of Ostrogski princes. It was thanks to them that Ostrog became one of the centers of education and culture in Rus, as well as the seat of one of the first universities in the region - Ostrog University, which played a key role in the development of education and science during this period.

Ostrog is also home to numerous historical monuments, including St. Michael's Cathedral (built in the 16th century), Ostróg Castle (though now in ruins) and many other religious and historical buildings. The city is also known for its printing traditions; it was here that the first printed Bibles in Old Church Slavonic were published in the 16th century.
