Three wells

Historical and hydrological memorial "Three Wells" (Ukrainian: Історико-гідрологічна пам'ятка "Три криниці") is an open-air museum, created for the National Historical and Cultural Preserve "Chyhyryn", located in the Subotiv village. According to a legend, these three wells were sunk by order of Bogdan Khmelnytsky to honor joint struggle of Ukrainian, Russian and Belarusian people for independence during the war against Polish gentry. Local storytellers say that if someone thinks of three secret wishes and drinks some water from the three wells, the wishes will come true.
