Молодечненский замок, Medieval castle in Maladziečna, Belarus
The castle occupies a rectangular area of 120 by 80 meters on the right bank of the Usha River, featuring earthen ramparts reaching 3.5 meters in height.
In 1388, Prince Dmitry Olgerdovich signed a letter of obedience to the Grand Duke of Lithuania Jogaila in this fortification, marking the first written mention of Maladziečna.
The castle grounds contained a stone temple measuring 11 by 24 meters, decorated with frescoes that existed from the 16th through the 18th centuries.
The castle remains are accessible via public transportation from Minsk to Maladziečna, with the site located in the northern part of the district.
During the renovation in the 17th century, Dutch-style bastions replaced the corner towers, and pointed stakes were installed at the base of the earthen ramparts.
