History The castle was built in the late 16th century by Bratslav voivode Janusz Zbaraski. After the Zbaraski family, in 1631, the fortress in Toky was passed to the Wiśniowiecki family. In 1648, during Bohdan Khmelnytskyi's uprising, the castle was captured by the Cossacks. In 1675, during the invasion, it was destroyed by the Turks.Рутинський М. Й. Замковий туризм в Україні.
