Town of Pidkamin is known for a Dominican monastery.
The complex is surrounded by walls and is located on the Rosary Hill that dominates the surrounding area.
It was first established by twelve monks from a monastery in Kiev, in 13thc. During the 17th century a fortified abbey was constructed.
The towers and the church (1612-95) are now under reconstruction after the Soviets turned it into jail and later a psychiatric hospital for women (which still exists) and the church was turned into a stable.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union and the emergence of independent Ukraine, the ruins of the monastery were given to Ukrainian Greek Catholic Studite Monks.
