Grodno is the most beautiful city in Belarus. The old castle is beautiful, although not huge in size, but it deserves attention. Everything is thought out, there are toilets for visitors, there is a souvenir shop. Interesting display cases with LCD touch screens that help you get the necessary information. I boldly recommend you to visit.

выдатны старажытны замак, былы стаўкай польскага караля Сцяпана Баторыя. Замак адрэстаўраваны, унутры цікавыя экспанаты, усе памяшканні замка набліжаны да гістарычнай рэальнасці. Наверсе ёсць назіральная пляцоўка, якая адкрывае агляд на бераг Нёмана. Білет недарагі, ёсць зніжкі для студэнтаў.Хочацца адзначыць лагодную жанчыну, якая прадае квіткі і размаўляе на беларускай, вельмі прыемна пачуць мову.

The Old Castle, located on a high and steep hill on the right bank of the Neman River in the city of Grodno, is a unique monument of architecture and archeology and the only preserved royal castle on the territory of modern Belarus. For a long time it was the residence of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania and the kings of Poland...The castle began to be built back in the days of the Ancient Russian state and was repeatedly destroyed, restored and rebuilt. The palace, fragments of defensive walls, ruins of the Lower and Upper Churches, princely chambers, and the bridge have been preserved to this day...Now the Grodno State Historical and Archaeological Museum is located in the castle! Tickets to the museum were taken on the spot, there are discounts for preferential categories, group tours are held. The ticket office is open until 17 o'clock. The museum is very interesting and includes many different exhibitions, ranging from demonstrations of the stages of construction to household items of kings, royal chambers, including baths and the secretary's room.... The castle also has a small souvenir shop, as well as an observation deck on the roof, which offers beautiful views of the Neman and the city.

It's a very beautiful place. Quietly, calmly, you feel the spirit of history. It is beautiful both in the evening and in the afternoon.
There is a new castle nearby. It is interesting to look at the river and the city from a height.

Almost half of the castle area has been perfectly restored (recreated in its old form). An interesting exposition. Good wardrobe, toilet, souvenir shop. You can also wish to have audio guides and warn visitors before they hand over clothes to the wardrobe that on the top floor at the end of the tour route there will be an exit to an open observation deck so that those who will go up to the wardrobe will not hand over clothes. Otherwise, in December, it's cold in an open area in just a shirt and you don't take a lot of pictures.

+ The museum is interesting, informative, and modern. Exhibits and interactivity.
+ Very beautiful views open on the observation deck.
- However, I was surprised by the indifferent or frankly irritated attitude of individual museum curators to visitors who asked questions. Especially in the hall where the crown is on display.
Despite this, I recommend you to visit.

A beautiful castle with an interesting exposition inside. Despite the fact that we were at the castle during the autumn holidays, children's tour groups did not interfere with the inspection of the castle - there was enough space for everyone.
I liked that in addition to the classic museum exposition, videos about the history of the castle and Grodno are shown in the halls.

We were in the Old Castle. A lot of positive emotions. Everything is beautiful and dignified. But without a guide, it's hard to get your bearings right away. The attendants in the halls (some) do not want to tell, and they also do not want to answer simple questions, they answer with an arrogant look: "you don't have to." It spoils the impression and the mood. However, not all of them. Some, on the contrary, suggest what to watch and where to read. In general, they did not regret it.

The old castle is located on the high bank of the Neman River. There is a magnificent view from the observation deck. We were there in the summer, there are a lot of tourist groups, everyone follows each other, the guides tell everything very quickly, in a hurry. Because of this, it is difficult to see everything calmly, since the rooms are small and there are a lot of people. But the castle is definitely worth a visit. It has a rich history.
