Mazyr Castle, Medieval castle in Mazyr, Belarus
The wooden fortress stands on elevated ground in central Mazyr, featuring defensive walls, towers, and interior chambers that reflect traditional Belarusian architecture.
Originally built in the 15th century, the castle endured multiple attacks from Tatar forces before its destruction in 1649 by Prince Janusz Radziwill's army.
The castle houses exhibitions of regional artifacts, historical documents, and traditional crafts that demonstrate the evolution of Belarusian society through centuries.
Visitors can access guided tours of the castle daily from 10 AM to 6 PM, with additional evening programs during summer months from June to September.
The current structure, reconstructed in 2005 for the city's 850th anniversary, incorporates authentic medieval building techniques and local wood materials.
