The place is beautiful and worth a visit. There is a museum on several floors in the castle territory. You can take a guide or walk by yourself. There is also a cafe on site. The towers have very narrow passageways, so you have to be careful. It will take more than an hour, or even more.

Mir Castle impressed with its beauty, an English park with a pond, a church-tomb of the princes Svyatopolk-Mirsky. We also managed to watch a theatrical performance in the courtyard of the castle, with cannon shots, drumming and sword fighting. There are steep steps in the castle, which are located in defensive towers, comfortable shoes helped me out when climbing)))

It was a very interesting tour, but since it was during the holidays, there were a lot of people and there were big traffic jams at the entrance and exit when climbing the towers and walls. It's a beautiful area, landscaping is also underway nearby, and I think it will be very beautiful in a few years.The castle itself is wonderful.Thank you for saving such a story.

The castle has been renovated, it is interesting to take a walk and get into that era. Few ancestral furniture has been preserved from the furnishings, but now the collection is being replenished with worthy exhibits. You can climb the towers, they have narrow passages and steep circular stairs and only for one person. They make you sweat. But the view from the top of the tower is not forgettable.

It's a very atmospheric place: we didn't go to museums, but we walked inside and around. Inside the castle, there are periodic visual performances of warriors with swords, and a throne for photos with swords for free. The children are asking when we will come here again. Soon: I answer, we will definitely be back!!

It's a beautiful castle. It looks different from each side (and it's not surprising, since it was built by more than one owner, and rebuilt too). Even the authentic staircases are preserved inside. They are spiral, with huge steps and extremely narrow. But for the convenience of visitors, lights and railings have been added there, so anyone can climb the tower. I recommend you to visit.

Very beautiful. We walked around the castle, along the narrow stairs, and learned a lot about the way of life and customs of those times. I advise you not only to visit, but also to take a ticket and take a walk through the expositions.

The castle, as the guides call it, neither impressed me nor my friends. I'll never go a second time. It looks like a new building. Inside (most importantly) there is no fullness. An ordinary ethnographic museum. There are many rooms in the castle where documents just hang on the walls. It's kind of mundane. Especially considering how much we paid for the trip (4,500 rubles for both excursions)"it's not worth it." But there's not much to see in Minsk either, so it's a good way to spend time. You'd better go to Grodno, a small town. To get there on your own (about 3 hours), there are many churches and churches. However, you need to book round-trip tickets in advance - this is a popular destination.

The castle and the surrounding area are well maintained, everything is clean and tidy. It's very beautiful all around. We went on an excursion, so everything was organized. The village itself, from the bus window, left a pleasant impression, despite the rain.

A beautiful castle, interesting and beautiful. The five is for the lock. The hotel is on the 4th floor, there is no kettle in the room, they offered to go down to the reception for it from the 5th floor. The hot water didn't go immediately in the evening, so I had to skip it for a long time. One towel was clean, but with unwashed stains. An incomprehensible device for controlling light. Either it's not working, or they haven't figured it out. It hangs right above the bed and shines red all night long, quite brightly, uncomfortably. Apparently, instead of a ghost))

Sooooo interesting museum complex, sooooo cool castle! Just a delight! During the trip, we visited this castle, Nesvizh, Grodno and Lida. This one comes first. Halls, corridors, stairs - we remembered a few more days after, and now, upon returning home, we remember this particular castle. The park is great too) although, as it turned out, we somehow passed by a lot.

I recommend watching it. When we were at the castle, there was a performance by the Shetland Knights in the castle courtyard. The castle building itself can be seen that it has been restored, the interior is used as a museum. The visit to the second tier is not organized - people go up and down one very narrow spiral staircase - you need to distribute the flow of people down and up When visiting the prison basement, it is not clear at all that:) a small room in which there is nothing, and only goes down the same narrow staircase- people can go either down or up.

The size of the castle is impressive. I walked around the castle for more than an hour. Some rooms need to be entered in shoe covers (they are given out for free). Narrow steep stairs to the towers, that's another adventure. The ticket for an adult is 17 BYN. I recommend you to visit. It's a beautiful place.

I really liked the castle, there were a lot of impressions, especially how we climbed up the narrow and high stairs, if it weren't for the handrails that we could grab onto, then there would be no chance to climb at all))) and it will come down at all))))) In general, I recommend woohhhhh 👍

The last time was back in the last decade. A lot has changed since that time, expositions have been added, this is a plus, but the minus is that partly at the expense of the old ones, and the money is being taken as before. And it turns out that you pay like for a ride on a camel: to ride for free, but to get off, pay.))

Beautiful complex, pleasant surroundings. It is interesting to walk inside both on the wall and on the towers. There is a torture room, but there is nothing interesting there. You can feel the atmosphere of the past by walking along the narrow corridors and steep stairs. I used the neural network to get information about the castle complex in a very informative way.

The castle is amazing in size, it is bigger than Nesvizh Castle. Although it seems to be more comfortable inside in Nesvizh. There are a lot of narrow, tall ladders in the towers, obese people can not overpower. And if the crowd descends at the top and rises at the bottom, congestion occurs. Those at the top are shouting: wait, we're coming down... in general, it's fun. You need to relax and feel adventurous. There were crowds of tourists in winter, and probably even more in summer. Most likely, it is better to arrive at the opening itself, when there are fewer people. There is always a small performance with knights in the courtyard.

A gorgeous castle! The beauty is breathtaking. After the opening of the museum, we visited it for the first time. Interesting. Before visiting the museum, I advise you to ask who Stephanie Radziwill is. But there is a disadvantage- this is a restaurant. Expensive, dishes without zest. The solyanka was prepared by the patrons. Solyanka is much tastier somewhere on the highway. The interior of the restaurant, however, is not bad. I strongly advise you to visit the castle while you are young, as there are very steep and narrow stairs in the towers, not everyone can master them.

A gorgeous castle and exhibits! Minus the organization score: people were launched from 4 entrances and real traffic jams formed on the narrow tower stairs. Administration, launch people from one entrance and release them from another and the problem is solved!!!

I was there for the first time about 25 years ago. Therefore, I am pleasantly surprised how the castle was put in order. The interiors and ceilings were amazing inside. The exposition about the owners is also interesting. There are a lot of visitors, so it was not possible to get on the tour, the audio guide helped out. The Scots had fun in the courtyard of the castle. Overall, the impression of the visit was very pleasant

It's a great castle. Smaller than Nesvizh, but very interesting. We planned to spend 2-3 hours, but eventually left after almost 5. The parking lot is not large, many park outside, on the grass. The toilet is paid. Souvenir stalls near the parking lot can accept Russian rubles. It would be nice if we added benches in the park. After spending several hours on your feet, you want to sit and have to sit on the ground.

The castle is very interesting! Since the 16th century, the castle was owned by the Radziwills, then the Wittgensteins). The last owners of the castle were the princes Svyatopolk-Mirsky. Now the castle is almost the only example of the original Belarusian Gothic. Of course, there are a lot of new clothes, few things directly from the castle. Lots of children's groups)) I recommend it not for independent walks, but with an excursion.

It's a beautiful castle. The area is currently being landscaped nearby, so it will be even more beautiful. There is parking, even two, but it's a bit difficult with places. We were on a weekday and there weren't many places available. There is a cafe in the town nearby, you need to drive a little further from the castle. We are very glad that we visited it.

It is very beautiful and interesting. But the tour itself is a bit short - only 45 minutes with a guide, and then by yourself. Here the guide did not come across very well - she seemed to tell us emotionally and communicated with the audience, she just dragged us into the tour, but - she speaks very quickly, not loudly - I did not understand her through the word:(

It is a very beautiful historical place. An interesting and informative tour of the castle. The family stayed for a day from 5 to 6 June this year, a magnificent view, beautiful evening illumination of the castle. The photos turned out great regardless of the time of day. The room is very clean. On the ground floor you can buy delicious and not expensive tea or coffee. They did not go to the cafe on the territory of the castle, the cafe itself does not belong to the castle, the prices in the cafe are too high compared to the Cornflower cafe in Minsk. There are other cafes outside the castle, but many do not work, and where you can eat, prices are lower than in the cafe on the castle grounds. If you come to the Republic of Belarus and decide to stop by the castle, then I recommend staying overnight. I can say for sure that being in this historical place, we received a lot of wonderful impressions and we do not regret that we stayed overnight. The staff is very friendly. If someone wants to stay, then try to book a room earlier, it will be cheaper, but in general there are rooms. Room reservations are free, payment is made upon arrival, which is very convenient. Many thanks to all the staff of the castle for the atmosphere of magic, comfort and kind, friendly attitude. We will definitely come here again. Thank you🙏💕

Perhaps the Mir Castle was the most impressive of the four castles we visited in Belarus. The passages where the walls of the 16th century have been preserved are authentic and majestic to the point of goosebumps. Just imagine that you are a medieval resident and feel the atmosphere of the place. Mirsky must be visited!

There is also a large beautiful castle at the entrance. Before visiting, you can plunge into a historical excursion from the times of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Russian tsars. On the territory there is a dungeon, loopholes, chambers with decorations, a museum, a souvenir shop and of course a themed restaurant. Yes, and don't forget to visit the temple, its price is included in the ticket!!
