Berestye Archeological Museum
Berestye Archeological Museum, Archaeological museum in Brest, Belarus.
The museum encompasses 1800 square meters and contains 28 preserved log cabins from an ancient East Slavic settlement beneath a modern glass structure.
Excavations between 1968 and 1981 led by Dr. P.F. Lysenko revealed wooden buildings, streets, and over 1400 artifacts dating from the 10th to 14th centuries.
The collection of 43,000 objects includes an oak plower and boxwood comb with Cyrillic letters, representing medieval East Slavic craftsmanship and daily life.
The museum operates daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and provides direct access to an authentic archaeological site within the Brest Fortress territory.
Visitors can observe an actual medieval East Slavic town preserved four meters underground, complete with original wooden structures and ancient pavements.
