Kamyanets Tower
Каменецкая вежа
A circular defensive tower built in the 13th century by Volzhanian princes, about 30 meters tall and one of the oldest structures in Belarus.
Built of red brick in the 1270s, the tower is known as the 'White Tower' because of the color of its outer walls. Its five floors hold exhibition halls that present the history of the town and the tower, and visitors can climb to the top for views. Located in Kamenyuki town about 40 km from Brest, it lies right on the way to Belovezhskaya Pushcha and is often visited as a stop along the route.
