Must have to visit.
A very interesting museum, very friendly staff and guides.
There is a great souvenir shop. Moreover, it is not Chinese stamped consumer goods that are sold, but a wide range of handmade products by local craftsmen.
Please note that the ascent to the observation deck is only with a guide.

An interesting museum/a tower telling how people lived in the Middle Ages. There are several floors with an exhibition of examples of everyday life of that time, there is a floor with weapons and armor. You can get out on the roof of the tower, but that's only if you book a tour, because they don't let you out alone. In general, it's great for your money. The exposition is small, of course, but they don't ask for much money. I advise everyone.

A place where it is fashionable for all ages, where there is an opportunity to plunge into history, into the ancient history.
The beautiful city of Kamenets with many historical sites that echo modern views, park ensembles, and in summer it is a flourishing city. It is attractive for walks and beautiful photos.

The service upset Belarus. And that's why. A turret, several floors. In my opinion, there are more expositions in one tower of the Mir Castle than in this one. For visiting 7.5 b.r. and something about the tour, I did not listen, it is not particularly interesting, when I remember from history that the gentry constantly claimed these lands. On two floors I met couples with children and guides - I frankly felt sorry for the children, they just fell asleep and rushed away from boredom, the parents pretended to listen, do you think they will remember something?... Remember yourself when you were young... And now the moment of disappointment is near. I read an advertisement on the Russian website - access to the upper open area, that was the only thing that attracted me. We went up to the top floor, the exit to the top is closed. Surprise, and a question to the caretaker on the floor. Answer: To the top only when ordering an excursion with a guide - 25 b.p. So I do not need an excursion, I can read on the stands myself. Let's just pay extra for the exit... Satisfy: We do not have such a service - only with a guided tour. ... In general, the town is about nothing, some kind of attraction is small and everyone will feed off it. Well done, they have come up with a great way to feed the guides as well... But the taste is unpleasant. It's like the whole country dumped libraries on the construction site in Minsk, but to make the entrance for Belarusians free at least once - the toad strangled.

A landmark of the 13th century. We were driving from Belovezhskaya Pushcha and it would be a crime not to stop by😁 We only took entrance tickets without guided tours. Only with a guided tour is it possible to get to the observation deck, Therefore, we did not get there(((( Before the trip, I studied all the information about this object in detail. The story is very interesting. I was especially pleased with the photos when the tower was whitewashed during the USSR and the slogan "Glory to the CPSU" was hung. Be sure to Google it)) Interesting facts about construction, site selection, defense, and restoration. Thus, this historical site deserves attention. By the way, he is the only survivor, the rest were destroyed or dismantled brick by brick.

Somewhere inside, very deeply, I understand the people working at the box office and in the museum, I don't really want to strain for a salary, it would be my own, the attitude was completely different.
And now I will explain: we came to this place on the recommendation of a guide from Belovezhskaya Pushcha, by the way, a very pleasant and knowledgeable person, it is probably not appropriate to voice the name. We arrived at 17.00, the tower museum is open until 17.30, we just wanted to go up to the top and take a couple of photos, but no: the ticket office said that only with a guide, and only until 16.30. Well, that's the whole story, and who read it - well done!!! We didn't get positive emotions... Very sorry.

It's a very interesting place. There is a lot to see in the tower, you can get acquainted with the history at the stands or book a tour. It is impressive that it has been preserved in this condition, considering the year of construction. The city is pleasant, there is a cozy cafe nearby. We are glad that we visited this place

If you drive by, visit it, add your impressions to the piggy bank. Please note that the observation deck at the top of the tower is closed to the public in winter. You can take a walk inside. The stairs are wide and reliable, and you don't feel dizzy when climbing.

An interesting museum, an original design inside. It is worth visiting on the way to Belovezhskaya Pushcha. They are not allowed to enter the upper observation deck one at a time, only as part of a guided tour.
Overall, the impression is good. An interesting place. Beautiful views.

The tower has been restored, the exposition is simple, but there is something to see. One disadvantage is that the upper tier is closed for the winter, so it's better to visit in the summer.

I was in this tower for the second time, but this time with an excursion that I bought on the spot. A bonus from the tour: in addition to the history of the tower, it is an opportunity to climb to the observation deck.
Take the time to visit this unique tower - it's worth it.
And I will also note parking, a decent toilet, a cafe across the street with a business lunch at pleasant prices with good quality.

A quiet and inconspicuous town. Clean and pleasant. We arrived at about noon hungry and hungry. Everything is closed except for one cafe. But there was nothing to eat there except pies with coffee or tea. But thanks for that too. True, there was also a pizzeria, but it took about thirty minutes to wait, and at first we decided to take a walk and then time ran out. It was necessary to rush on. In general, there is nothing to see except the tower. Therefore, stop by only on the way. Special respect to the locals. Everyone from children to adults greeted and congratulated on the holiday. And the best part was that we were so worried about our stomach that we had to take information about local catering outlets for about half an hour. Thanks a lot to them for that.

On the way to Belovezhskaya Pushcha, you can stop in the town of Kamenets and explore the ancient watchtower. Inside the tower there is a small but capacious museum covering the history of the city and the tower itself. Inside there are 5 tiers, a spiral staircase in the middle leads up to the wooden arch itself. You will not be able to get to the teeth on your own, only with an excursion. There is a parking lot nearby. On the square in front of the tower there is a ticket office, a toilet and a souvenir shop. There are no people at all for the May holidays of 2024, so you could safely take pictures.

An interesting and atmospheric place. it's very cool that there are free days, my family and I were lucky to get on such a day and we visited the Kamenetsky Vezhi Museum for free. However, there is a caveat - if you want a photo inside, you need to pay (about 2.5 rubles)

It's a good museum to visit. It is better in the warmer months, as the observation deck will be open. But even in the cold season, its walls will protect you from the weather.

One-time visit. Without an excursion, you should not expect any strong impressions at all.
Try to visit here in warm, clear weather - there is a chance to get to the observation deck.

The place is interesting, the second time there, but it's not worth going specifically straight from afar, except for deviating a little from the route.
It was 30.04.2024 on a pre-holiday day, but there was not a word about the fact that the day was shorter, well, at least they would have written by hand. Fortunately, we managed to do it.
It was unpleasant that the tickets were already punched at a new price, higher, from 05/01/2024 - a trifle, but unpleasant.
I do not remember that 2 or 3 years ago they took money for photography, and the prices, especially video shooting, are just space: 14.40rB, which at the rate of 1x35 = 504p.
There is a separate conversation about the exit to the observation deck. The price list was poorly readable in the sun, but no one wanted to offer it, they say, find out for yourself, and how do you know if when I was there earlier I also did not know about it and no one offered it either.
So it turns out there is a place, but there is no service. I won't write anything about the excursions - I didn't find out.
I put 4 stars and 2 cons in my mind just for a beautiful place.

Tower (Vezha) . 40 km from Brest, in the town of Kamenets, there is a defense watchtower with the romantic name Belaya Vezha. It was built at the end of the 13th century. The tower stands on a hill, so that from its height of 35 meters the surroundings are perfectly visible.

The Kamenetsky Tower is a defensive structure of the 13th century. Personally, I have not met such structures, this is a fortification that was widespread in the XIII–XIV centuries in the western lands.
The height of the tower is 29.4 m, the walls are made of red brick, the tower is shaped like a cylinder, divided into five tiers. The walls of all tiers are equipped with loopholes, who knows who fired from them at the enemies?
I liked the exposition, it was interesting.
The area around the tower is paved with paving stones, the restrooms are located in the pavilion next to it.
I definitely recommend you to visit.

You can go to the museum, but you can only get to the observation deck at the top of the tower with a guide, of whom there are not many and you have to wait an hour until he returns with the previous group. This is very strange, I advise you to book the tour in advance. The place itself is incredibly beautiful and ancient. The tower is impressive.

We ordered an excursion. The guide is a bomb, a young man, unfortunately I do not remember the name. A person is passionate about his profession, loves it, loves the city, knows the history. We got aesthetic pleasure, everything fell into place in my head. If someone gathers at the vezha, I recommend this guide. You really won't regret it.

A good guide, he told everything very interestingly, an hour flew by not noticeably. We touched more than six hundred years of history. It turned out to be very interesting for children. I recommend it!
