## About

Iziaslav is a town in Khmelnytskyi Oblast on the Horyn River. The ruins of the Sanguszko palace and the former Bernardine monastery recall its history as an aristocratic and religious centre.

## Notes

Zaslav and related forms are ambiguous with Belarusian Zaslawye. The 1910 change predates Soviet decommunization. Reference: https://esu.com.ua/article-13873
