 square, invisible, draw only border

Ploshcha Koliivshchyny (Koliivshchyny Square) is located between Brativ Rohatyntsiv and Staroievreiska Streets.
This small square emerged on the site of the former Korkesivska House and the empty parcel belonging to Kopl Tewlewicz.

In the early nineteenth century, it was called Żydowski Square, later Wekslarski Square, and since 1944 it has been named Koliivshchyny Square, in honor of 1768 peasant and Cossack uprising.
It is considered to be the smallest city square of Ukraine.

Until the beginning of the 20th century there was a well on the square that provided water to the entire Jewish quarter.
The buildings No. 31 and 40 on Staroievreiska Street, No. 31 on Bliakharska Street and No. 26 and 45 on Brativ Rohatyntsiv Street overlook the square. And only a single building officially belongs to the square.
