In 2013 it was completed partial restoration of the castle. It was held with the help of governmental funds and later with public funds and patrons. There was also help  from owners of quarries, volunteers and students.

There is a complete reconstruction project of the castle, which was prepared by national reserve "Castles of Ternopil", but now it is waiting for funding and better times.
