Despite the fact that the tower is 29.4 meters, five floors, the exposition is still very small and there are no highlights in the exhibits presented. Therefore, I advise you to visit with a guide who will tell you more information than you can see. The tower is unique for Belarus, I advise you to visit it. Tours stop selling an hour before the museum closes. There is parking, a toilet, and you can buy a memory magnet at the ticket office.
We didn't get to the observation deck, you can't use an entrance ticket, only with an excursion, and there were no free ones)

I've been here many times, but I've never been able to get to the observation deck. Sometimes you need a guide, sometimes you don't have one, sometimes it's winter...
I was not on the tour, but the view, the grooming is not bad.
Plus, there is an audio guide that was accidentally found on the Internet, you can walk around the center and listen to short stories about many buildings. Informative.
A great museum! I liked it very much. If you are in Kamenets, be sure to visit the tower, you will not regret it. You don't have to take a tour, pay the entrance fee, quite a bit, and see everything yourself.
I liked the tower itself as a monument. The place is picturesque, the view is beautiful, the tower is impressive. But, upstairs, you can only climb to the roof with a guide who, at the time of the visit, led the tour from the bus. It would be possible to wait, of course, but there is frankly nothing to do there except visit the tower. Which, it seems to me, is a big omission of the organizers...
In short, everything is great. I highly recommend a visit. You must take the tour, the guide told you an amazing story. An exciting story for 45 minutes. The tower is steep both outside and inside.
Of the disadvantages, they are not allowed to go to the observation deck without a guide (you need to pay extra separately) and they also ask you to pay extra for shooting on camera.
Of the advantages, there are 5 floors with exhibits related to the city and its history.
The place is certainly beautiful and interesting from an excursion point of view.It is written that the ticket office was closed until 17.30. The museum was closed until 18.00. We arrived at 17.00. The museum was closed, the caretakers were sitting next to us on a bench, they opened the museum for us with a dissatisfied look, they did not let us into the observation tower, explaining that it was already late, but after all, there was still an hour before closing?🤷♀️
They say a wonderful view opens from the tower. But you can only get there with a guided tour, but there were no guides)) therefore, they did not give money without visiting the top.
I advise you to visit with a guide. Take a tour-you won't regret it. They tell it in an interesting and very lively way that you don't even notice how time passes
The legendary White Vezha is a symbol of the Republic of Belarus. There is a museum of the history of the tower and the town of Kamenets. Nearby, on a hill, there is a beautiful Orthodox church.
An interesting tower, worth a visit. But the work schedule is very strange. The official website says that the tower is open until 18, the ticket office until 17:30, and the last excursion to the observation deck leaves at 16:30 or 17:00, I don't remember exactly. This was not indicated on the website, which was very upsetting. Because we were passing through from Brest, and we calculated that we would have about an hour left to visit the tower. The most interesting thing is to climb up to the observation deck. It is very strange that the museum administration restricts the access of visitors in this way. 3 stars precisely because of this, and because the site does not have correct information on the work of the museum
It was very frustrating that they wouldn't let you on the observation deck unless you bought a guided tour. And it is expensive and there is not always time for it.
We were passing through, we didn't regret it.We took a guide, I advise you to take it if you will, first of all, a very interesting story, well, they don't let you on the observation deck without a guide.The view from above is gorgeous.
It is definitely worth taking an individual guide. It's very interesting to tell. Of course, you often don't go there-but if you are somewhere nearby, you will definitely visit.
An interesting historical place. I recommend everyone to climb to the roof of the tower, as the view from there is beautiful. Plus, look at the tower itself from the inside. The only disadvantage is that you can climb to the roof with a guide, and this is + 15p to the entrance ticket (you can take one guide for a small group)
And here an unpleasant surprise awaited us, as part of an independent (paid) visit, access to the observation deck on the roof is not available. Only for paying for a guided tour ((

The museum is the main place to visit this town. It is perfectly restored and even has interactive glasses (well, something similar))) to get into that era. Five floors of the tower with exhibits. A worthy place, if you happen to be here. The caretakers are nice and friendly)
We arrived at the end of the working day and could not climb the towers, but they say the view from there is very good, I recommend that you arrive there before 17 00
