Novgorod Volynskyi- (ukr. Новоград-Волинський) is a city located in western Ukraine, in Zhytomyr Oblast, in historic Volyn. It is one of the oldest cities in Ukraine and has a rich history dating back to the Middle Ages. Volyn Novgorod is known for its historical heritage, monuments and culture.
Volyn Novgorod is full of historical monuments, including a 14th century fortress and St. Nicholas Church, which is one of the oldest religious buildings in the region. Also worth a visit is the Museum of Volyn Novgorod, which presents the history of the city and its people. The statue of Taras Shevchenko in the city center is another element related to the important role of this locality in Ukrainian culture.
Volyn Novgorod is located in a picturesque area along the Sluch River. The area around the city is full of greenery, forests and fields, making it an attractive place for walks and contact with nature. The city has a quiet, rural character, but at the same time it is well connected to other cities.
The bus station where our coaches stop is located on Hindenburgstrasse, not far from the main train station. It is actually the center of the city, so you will reach the nearest and one of the most important points of interest in the city, St. Vitus Basilica, on foot in twenty minutes.
On the other hand, heading north you will reach two parks, full of sculptures and installations, designed by some of Europe's greatest artists.
If you're a Borussia Moenchengladbach fan, but don't want to devote your trip solely to the match, consider visiting Skulpturpark Abteiberg or Bunter Garten, two gardens. In the latter you will also hit the botanical garden and arboretum.
The Abteiberg Museum, adjacent to the aforementioned St. Vitus Basilica, is also worthy of your attention. There, the works of Andy Warhol and Gerghard Richter await you.
The museum is a great place to visit.
Monchengladbach can furthermore be a base for exploring nearby larger cities such as Cologne and Düsseldorf. Accommodation in Monchengladbach should be slightly lower than in the state capital. In addition, Monchengladbach, through its proximity to the Belgian and Dutch borders, can be a stop on a trip specifically to the Benelux countries. Although, in our opinion, the number of attractions in the city makes Monchengladbach as a city able to fill a tourist's calendar for virtually a whole week.
