History
The town was mentioned in 1328, and was a capital of one of the Upper Oka Principalities. In the late 14th century it passed to the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and in 1407 it passed to the Grand Duchy of Moscow. It was a fortified town in the 16th century, yet, it was sacked several times.
Formerly a capital of one of the Upper Oka Principalities, Peremyshl contains the ruins of a mid-16th century cathedral which collapsed in the 1980s from neglect. Descendants of the local rulers include the Vorotynsky and Gorchakov families.
