Каменецкий детинец, Medieval fortress in Kamyanyets, Belarus
The Kamyanyets fortress features a red brick tower standing 30 meters tall with walls measuring 2.5 meters in thickness, divided into five internal levels.
Prince Vladimir Vasilkovich commissioned the construction of this defensive fortification in 1276, appointing architect Alexa to oversee the project.
