How to travel from SWIEBODZIN to BERDYCHIV?

Berdyczów (ukr. Бердичів) is a city located in central Ukraine, in the Zhytomyr region. It is known for its multicultural past, in which Polish, Jewish, Ukrainian and Russian influences intermingled. In the 19th century, the city was one of the most important commercial and cultural centers of the region.

One of Berdyczow's most valuable monuments is the Monastery of the Discalced Carmelites, which was founded in the 17th century and served as a defensive fortress. It was here that the wedding of French writer Honoré de Balzac to Evelina Hanska took place in 1850.

Berdyczów was also an important Jewish center - before World War II, the Jewish population made up a significant portion of the city's population. There are historic synagogues and cemeteries commemorating the former community.

Today Berdyczow is an industrial and cultural city that retains traces of its centuries-old history. It is a popular destination for tourists interested in the region's past and the Polish-Jewish heritage in Ukraine.
