The museum is located in the city center and is located next to the Old Castle. The territory of the museum and the expositions themselves are mandatory for everyone who has come to this wonderful city. But there is one thing - please ask the museum administration to add the Russian language to the description of all objects!!! After all, there are a lot of tourists from Russia and it is more convenient to perceive information in Russian too.

The new castle impresses with its impressive appearance! You understand that the area was not chosen for him by chance — such a strategic location is amazing. 🌄
Although the exposition at the exhibition is quite standard and resembles other castle exhibitions, it still deserves attention. Considering the price tag of the ticket, I would definitely recommend visiting it. This is a great opportunity to immerse yourself in history and enjoy the majestic views!

A wonderful place, a fascinating old castle. From the observation deck, the views are breathtaking. Fascinating excursions.
I recommend a French-style summer cafe vb.cafe on the territory of the new castle.

We arrived in Grodno for a day, on September 25, 2024
Because there was very little time, there was a choice between the old castle and the new one, but the description of the new palace interested us more.
There are a number of interesting works about chivalry.
But the most impressive thing was the conversation between two employees of the museum, who were not embarrassed by the visitors (about ten people, including us).
On the floor, passing further into the Soviet era, two employees in literate Russian loudly debated on the topic of describing objects and paintings on it. And one of them tried to explain to the second that this was a competent step. The other one denied everything (in Russian, please note) and said that the Russians had gone to them, and as soon as the restrictions were lifted, they would forget their land. And whatever her will, everything in the museum would be only in the Belarusian language. I clearly remember the phrase: "When a Belarusian comes up to me and asks why there is no Russian in the description of the paintings, I tell him that we have 2 official languages in our country and he must know his native language. And if a Russian approaches me, I send him to Paris, to the Louvre, to dictate my terms there." Actually, starting at 12 o'clock and until the end of the day, we just waited for the train to go on. Everything in the city, after their dialogue, caused only 2 associations - Unreasonably expensive, unfriendly. The mood was saved only by a cool uncle who played outside and sang. In everything close to my heart, I have been almost everywhere, and everything responds to my heart, except Grodno. And I really don't want to do it a second time.
If we ignore the situation, there are more impressive places in the city than this museum. The time spent is not worth it.

The castle building is interesting.
It is located in the center at the hub of historical sites.
But...
the exposition is built according to yesterday's standards. It is not interesting in terms of sequence.
Some exhibits contradict the historical sequence by dates - it seems that there are different authors of the exposition in each hall.
The halls of the animal world and Animals of Belarus are well represented.
But....
If there is an audio guide system when buying a ticket, the staff does not offer to use an additional service, the institution loses obvious profit.
Team tours are not organized.
When buying tickets, payment by phone does not work, only a physical card.
There are few souvenirs.
There is no sale of water and coffee
I will go a second time if there are these innovations))) 9

But I liked the New Castle even more. This is a great journey into the world of history, art, and nature of Belarus. The most magnificent expositions and specimens in the collection of the museum.

Every last Tuesday of the month, visiting the museum is free (a very good initiative). Having visited the museum of the Old and New Castle, I can say. I liked the Old Castle better. But that's just my opinion. The new castle is interesting in its own way. I liked the rooms with exhibits of animals. In general, you can safely go on excursions!!!

The exposition is quite chaotic, between the halls with antique weapons there suddenly turns out to be a hall with stuffed animals. The exhibits are very poorly signed, only in the Belarusian language. Given the number of Russian tourists, the lack of duplication in Russian is surprising, to be honest. There are some rude people among the staff, personally, one caretaker began to literally kick me out of the hall in a very rude tone just because I stopped for a couple of minutes to answer (silently!) to a text message on your phone. Allegedly, the fact that I was standing still was disturbing other visitors. That is, it is boring, and also the boorish attitude of the staff, I do not recommend visiting.

It is also a beautiful castle, the first part of the castle is still interesting. Historical and important things have been preserved, and it is also signed what is behind the glass. The second part of the castle is also quite interesting, but it is no longer connected with history. I recommend you to visit.

Beautiful ladies will be able to admire beautiful vases, statuettes, interior items and antique furniture. There are many paintings by different authors and old photographs, and there is also a collection of icons. There are expositions dedicated to wildlife - with stuffed animals and birds. And of course, there is a beautiful view of the Neman, the Old Castle and the Kalozhskaya Church. In general, everyone will find something interesting for themselves.
