Lutsk Castle (Ukrainian: Луцький замок, Lutskiy zamok), also locally known as Lubart's Castle (Замок Любарта, Zamok Lyubarta) or Upper Castle (Верхній замок, Verkhniy zamok), began its life in the mid-14th century as the fortified seat of Gediminas' son Liubartas (Lubart), the last ruler of united Galicia-Volhynia. It is the most prominent landmark of Lutsk, Ukraine and as such appears on the 200 hryvnia bill.
