Zamek w Trembowli w świetle inwentarzy z lat 1550 i 1551
The Terebovlia castle in the light of inventories from 1550 and 1551

Summary/Abstract: The article concerns the castle in Terebovlia (now Ukraine) after the reconstruction it underwent in the 1530s on the initiative of ‘starosta’ (capitaneus) Andrzej Tęczyński. Until now, the description of this fortress has been known from the inventory of the Terebovlia eledrship (capitaneatum) from 1551. The collection of the National Library in Warsaw includes another inventory, drawn up in 1550, which has not been used by researchers so far. It contains more detailed information about the building, which allows to tell how the buildings within the defensive walls and the rooms within them were constructed. The writer also described the equipment of the castle chambers and utility rooms, as well as the accumulated food supplies. It also contains information about the weapons stored in the castle. Comparison of information from both inventories shows that the castle in the mid-16th century was in poor condition. The supply of weapons was clearly improved in 1551. The article is accompanied by an annex containing the inventory of the castle from 1550.
