Krasny Bierah, Agrotown in Žlobin District, Belarus
Krasny Bierah is a small agricultural settlement nestled along the Dobośnia River in southwestern Žlobin District. The village stretches alongside the waterway, featuring a neo-Gothic mansion that now serves as an agricultural college.
The settlement first appeared in records during the 1300s under a different name and passed through the hands of various noble families. The mansion that defines the place today was built in the late 1800s.
The settlement's name refers to the red riverbank, a natural feature that remains visible in the landscape today. Visitors notice this characteristic when walking along the waterside during their visit.
The settlement connects to broader transport networks through a historic railway line that has served the area since the mid-1800s. The riverside location makes it easy to navigate on foot and to explore the surrounding countryside.
The village served as a transit point during World War II for people displaced from their homes. This difficult chapter remains an important part of the region's memory.
