The article presents the results of the study of literary sources and natural surveys of the territory of the castle in Rohatyn carried out by the authors. As is well known, the city of Rohatyn of the Ivano-Frankivsk region is one of the oldest cities in Western Ukraine. As early as 1415, the city received the Magdeburg right, which gave potential for more intensive development of the settlement.

The Trinitarian monastery and church was an important part of the original planning structure of the Stanislawow fortress city (now Ivano-Frankivsk), an architectural complex of ground and underground buildings with a religious, residential and warehouse purpose. The research identifies the original form and composition, historical building periods, further development and current state of the monastic complex of the Trinitarians. Dozens of historians, architects, local history explorers have left their essays or articles about this complex.
