National University "Ostroh Academy" (Ukrainian: Національний Університет Острозька Академія, translit.: Natsional'nyi Universytet Ostroz'ka Akademiia) is a Ukrainian self-governed (autonomous) research university that was opened in 1994 by the Presidential Decree of April 12, 1994. The university considers itself a continuation of the historical Ostroh Academy and is the first Eastern Europe Academy (dating to 1576).
Ostroh town is called "The Volyn Athens" and mainly it is because of the Academy. The poet Penkalsky wrote in 1600: “The muse lodged in jail, even the god of art Apollo has left the island of Delos and moved to Ukraine”.
The school occupies the buildings of the former Rococo Capuchin monastery (built in 1779). Ostroh Academy is the only elite university of Ukraine that is not located in a regional capital.
