"For the first time it was mentioned in Ipatiiv chronicles
1100. The origin of the name comes from its situation on a high
bank of the Vilia river where the riverside hills make an acute
bend - "ostroh".
Ostroh was a significant cultural center of Ukraine. In the XVI
century in the town there was opened a Greek-Slavonic school. In
the school they taught Slavonic, Greek and Latin languages,
grammar, arithmetic, logic, rhetoric.
