Everything is fine, but be ready to run from any part of the fortress to a single toilet, which is near the first barracks. This spoils the overall impression of the visit, because I had to cruise back and forth several times, which was inconvenient.
We arrived in the morning at 10 o'clock and there were no people at all. Unfortunately, we did not have time to visit the museums, but we walked around the territory. Of course, it is worth visiting in memory of our heroes!
But please solve the issue of toilets!!! It's a shame to have one toilet in such a territory

A very large, majestic and impressive memorial on the territory of the Brest Fortress, located in the center of Brest. The objects, which are practically untouched by repairs and restoration, make it possible to fully immerse yourself in the events of 1941 and feel what those who defended this fortress at the cost of their lives in the early days of the beginning of the Second World War went through.

Brest Fortress is a unique historical place. This is a hero fortress that has perpetuated the memory of the steadfastness and courage of our people. A very interesting central entrance with a touching soundtrack, and the same magnificent monument to the brave soldier, the Church of St. Nicholas. St. Nicholas the Wonderworker and the Eternal Flame. It gives me the creeps!
The territory of the fortress is a kind of park with a river. Everything is very well maintained. There are cafes and public toilets. There is an Orthodox women's monastery outside the fortress. If you are going to Brest. This place should be one of the first to visit!

It is strange to give a five grade to a historical monument and a monument, but.... Maybe it will attract people's attention. It's worth a visit. This is the story of the whole country and the separate city of Brest. A monument to the resilience of people. We took a personal tour. We were told the story of the construction of the fortress, as well as the story of its death. The story of the fortitude and determination of the people who were there. The memorial monument itself is impressive. The only hero fortress among the hero cities.

Ever since I read S.Smirnov's Brest Fortress as a child, I dreamed of visiting it and now it has happened!
To say that this memorial complex is very impressive is to say nothing. It's been a week, and when I remember, a lump rises in my throat and tears roll down.
Many thanks to the Belarusians (with a capital letter!) for the preservation of memory, for the education of the younger generation of Brest.

It is necessary to take a guide, we had a 2-hour excursion. It is very interesting, but all this time my soul was very restless and sad, every meter is soaked with blood and human tragedy. Heroism intersected with betrayal.
It is necessary to take children with you so that they listen carefully. History is often very cyclical.
I highly recommend visiting this place.

I will say this, a very strong place, many fortifications are intact, which is very good, and closed.
But it is understandable, if everyone went there, then everything would be sad.
You definitely need to visit here.
Only the Volyn fortifications were upset, because there are a lot of repairs and cars

The place is impressive... I have lived in Brest for more than 20 years and every time I walk under this monument to the eternal flame, I get goosebumps... Just stop and listen... Eternal memory to our heroes who fell for our future. I rode around the fortress on a bicycle up and down. I advise you to visit Brest itself on June 21 on Sovetskaya Street in the evening and on June 22 to watch the annual reconstruction of the attack of Nazi Germany on the USSR... There are many excursions in the Fortress itself, there are cafes, of course there are exhibitions with expansions from those times. Everything is clean and cultured.

It took more than 4 hours to inspect the complex, visit all the museums, etc. I recommend booking a guide in advance, we had to walk ourselves and eavesdrop on the stories of other groups somewhere. I definitely recommend visiting, especially with children. A genuine sense of pride comes over you when you are there. At the same time, the hope is that peace will always reign on our planet.

Well, come to Belarus and not visit the Brest fortress. In this place, you feel fear, sadness and pride for our fathers, grandfathers, great-grandfathers. How they met this fascist horde, without really having any ammunition, provisions and medicines, They stood to the death until the last moment, not allowing these reptiles to go to their relatives, families, and in general to our people. They stood to their deaths regardless of nationality, position, position, honor and praise to you, our fighters. If you are in Belarus, be sure to visit this place and learn another piece of the history of that terrible war.

Be sure to visit the Brest Fortress. There are many heroic places in Belarus, but not many of them are actively and, importantly, lovingly used by local residents for family walks. And I really liked that, while remaining a very iconic and memorable place, the fortress seemed to have received a second life. The temple on the territory of the fortress leaves an indelible impression - snow-white on the outside and wounded and scorched by the war inside.

Here you begin to realize all the tragedy and all the will to win of those Red Army soldiers who defended it. If you decide to visit it, I advise you to spend a few days. Be sure to visit the fortress with a licensed guide, as well as take a walk around the fortress on your own.. You will definitely like it and will help you understand more precisely what happened here in the summer of 1941.
