Grzymalów is situated about 40 km. south-east of Ternopil, on the banks of the Hnyla-Rudka river. The city was apparently founded at the beginning of the 18th century, after the region was liberated following the battles of the Tatars, the Ottomans and others. After its establishment by nobles of the Sieniawski family, a fortified castle was built there, which acted as the center of activity for about 30 villages and small towns in its vicinity. Beyond the economic activity of the city, in 1716 the central communal functions of the Roman-Catholic church were relocated there.
