ARCHITECTS OF THE MEDZHYBIZH CASTLE IN THE LAST HALF OF THE 16th CENTURY JAN BĄK AND KRZYSZTOF BODZAN. ARCHIVES vs MYTHES

This article informs for the first time that in the second half of the 16th century, a citizen of the city of Ternopil, Jan Bąk (“Jan Bonk” in English transcription), was employed by Mikołaj Sieniawski as the architect of Medzhybizh Castle (now in Khmelnytskyi region, Ukraine). The notice of this fact was found by the author in the first volume of the manuscript “Płac prawnych prac” (“A place for legal searches” – from Polish).
