An impressive structure. The building has been standing for more than 700 years and has never been captured by enemies. Our ancestors built for centuries. The preservation of the original appearance is more than 90%. A real monument of architecture of those distant historical times.

I really liked this place. Not only the tower itself, which turned out to be larger than I expected, but also its surroundings.
For those who want to touch the history - Kamenetskaya

One of the oldest medieval towers preserved in Belarus. In terms of traveling around the Brest region, it should be like a must have.

The tour guide, a short young man in a strict suit, struck with his knowledge to the depths of his soul. I highly recommend to see this tower and it is with a guided tour. A memorable place. Many thanks to the museum!!!

I visited this place on April 22, 2023 and I can say that I was not impressed at all. The first impression was ruined at the checkout.
I don't understand the approach of museums. Why, when buying a ticket, I still have to pay separately for taking pictures, I have seen this in other places. In my opinion, this should already be included in the price. The second is the ticket price on all resources 2.83 and the total is 6 rubles. Third, when I paid for the tickets, they told me that for this money I could only see 5 floors, and to climb the last one, I still need to book a tour for 18.9 rubles.
In general, I will say that there is absolutely nothing to see in this tower. I haven't even taken a single photo. Like most of the sights of Belarus that have museums, nothing surprised me, since most of the things in museums are not even related to the history of this place, but mostly from this era or just old things in order to have something to see. Perhaps if I had taken a tour, I would have learned more, but the staff of the institution itself is absolutely not burning with their work, they were sitting on the bench and there is no desire to listen to anything from them…
The cost of visiting is low, but it is not worth making a loop on the way to Brest for such a place.

An interesting tower-museum. It is possible to book a guided tour. There are many original exhibits. Unfortunately, without a 1.5-hour tour, they do not open the exit to the roof (
There is a local caretaker Pigeon

I advise you to visit. An interesting museum. You can invite a guide - he tells you very interesting things. Both entrance tickets and the guide are paid at the ticket office. We joined two companies of 9 people and with the guide we looked at everything carefully and listened. Everyone liked it.

The tower is 700+ years old. Standing next to her, you realize that she will outlive you, too. The view from the hill is amazing!

I recommend a mandatory visit! A very interesting museum. I advise you to go up to the roof - it's very beautiful.
You can wander around the museum on your own, but it's better to take a guided tour.

An interesting place, the tour of the tower and the surrounding area takes about 1 hour. In winter, access to the observation deck is closed. Photography inside is paid, the price is slightly less than a dollar. The entrance ticket for an adult is about $ 2, a children's ticket is 50%

The tower with the 5-ruble banknote of the Republic of Belarus.
We visited the fortress tower quickly (for a couple of hours) in May 2022.
We took a tour, it's interesting, the exposition is small, it won't be tedious for children, as in the endless rooms of castles.
You have to pay both for the tour and for the entrance ticket, but the cost is less than in castles.
There are narrow stairs in the tower, people with sore legs will not be able to climb.
There is an observation deck on the roof above, where there is access only with a guide.
It is said that the tower was restored three times, in the 19th century, at the beginning of the 20th and at the end.
Such a tower, of the Volyn fortification type, remained alone, but there were several pieces on the territory of the Vladimir-Volyn Principality and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
The tower is a UNESCO monument, if that means anything.
The tower has never been captured by enemies, which is probably why it is WHITE, that is, free.
The tower was not destroyed either in the First World War or in the second war. The tower was destroyed only by time, wind, sun, precipitation and people. It was abandoned for a long time. Residents dragged the stones into bricks, but were unable to break the tower.
The tower has an interesting foundation base, made of rubble stones laid in river sand.
The tower itself is red from ordinary brick, although it is called the White Tower.
Vezha is a tower. Belo Vezhskaya Pushcha, probably because of the tower.
The entrance to the tower is now arranged from below.
This does not correspond to the project, but it is more convenient for visitors.
It's cold on the first tier, an ancient cellar has been recreated there in half a floor.
Above, where there are windows and loopholes, you can hear the strong howling of the wind.
It's windy on the roof, overlooking the valley.
Earlier in the Middle Ages, the entrance was on the 3rd level, through a door at a height of about 10 meters, they climbed ladders, loads were lifted on ropes.
Inside there is an exhibition of armor of warriors and knights, ancient bows, crossbows, swords, skins, shards, coins, keys, locks. There is something to see even for children.
I recommend it to lovers of towers.
There is a mock-up of the tower with a wooden fence and stairs and there is a mock-up of the tower in the section.
There are flags and coats of arms of the Radziwills with a Chase despite the fascist train.
Downstairs at the cash register, "amulets" with skulls, runes, swastikas and other heresies are on sale.
There are not enough white elements on the tower - false windows, which were previously in the project and certificates.

It wasn't written on the Internet that it didn't work, my family came from Minsk and really wanted to see it, but there was a record on the door that it was a sanitary day and the museum wasn't working. At least you need to write on the Internet what you want to do and when the museum will not work.

An interesting old building of the XIII century built. Of course, only brick walls remained from that time, and everything inside is new. Special thanks for the virtual tour of the tower. I wish other museums would do that...

The tower is interesting in Belarus, one of the most ancient preserved objects, but it is better to look outside, inside, despite the fact that prices are too high, there is nothing to look at, and take pictures for an additional fee.for example, access to the observation deck at the top is only with an excursion, there are very few people on weekdays.

It is a historically important and significant place on the southwestern border of Belarus. A very beautiful and majestic Vezha, located near Belovezhskaya Pushcha. I definitely recommend it to everyone! There is a museum in the tower, which presents historical finds, events and personalities. You can book a guided tour that tells the story of this place. You can go to the museum without a guide, just by buying a ticket at the ticket office located to the right of the tower. However, the advantage of a guided tour is the opportunity to climb to the very top of the tower and appreciate the magnificent view of the surrounding area.

Despite the fact that the tower is 29.4 meters, five floors, the exposition is still very small and there are no highlights in the exhibits presented. Therefore, I advise you to visit with a guide who will tell you more information than you can see. The tower is unique for Belarus, I advise you to visit it. Tours stop selling an hour before the museum closes. There is parking, a toilet, and you can buy a memory magnet at the ticket office.
