A very atmospheric place! Very friendly and hospitable owners!
We planned to stop by for 5 minutes, as a result we spent 1.5 hours there! We heard a lot of interesting stories, legends, and all this to the accompaniment of "Old Olsa". A workshop with ceramic souvenirs deserves special attention, everyone will definitely find a wonderful souvenir there. Despite the off-season, we were greeted very warmly, we just warmed up.
We decided for ourselves, we will definitely stop by in the summer, at the same time we will visit the ceramics festival in Krevo
It's a cool place, you have to understand what you're evaluating, because some commentators will set up castles in the air in their heads and go to see them, they probably expect an ideal paved road to a place with a red carpet, infrastructure from cafes and shopping malls and millions of financing. Such people apparently live in some kind of parallel universe in which everything is perfect or do not think adequately. I see that a person makes a bunch of these small bricks and other exhibits himself without serious help. It's like this is his hobby, as someone wrote, but show me your hobbies so that you can evaluate and not be ashamed to show, so I don't understand what these skeptics expected. Just if you feel sorry for the time, you could look at what it is on the Internet to understand whether it is worth going. Here, the state sometimes cannot boast that it has restored something, but what to ask a person. The owner dressed in special clothes when he showed everything and told me, I think it's worth seeing since we arrived there, I had only pleasant impressions. Strength, health and inspiration to the owners.
The owners are wonderful creative people.
Not far from the layout there are two labyrinths of stones, I highly recommend going through even if you don't really understand and believe anything other than the material, choose a desire -intention and go ahead, then see how everything turns out perfectly for you.Every stone there is magical, because the owner does everything with love.
By the way, I also recommend buying ceramics, wood, metal products from them, in their craft shop, which is located directly next to the layout.
And also, get ready to listen to many interesting stories, which will certainly intertwine historical facts, legends and myths.
Have a nice trip.
It's a very cool place. Entrance tickets are fire)) the layout is definitely superior to the original)) miniature bricks are just a fairy tale, and even made by the owners. Everyone who is going towards the Hervyats, be sure to stop at D.Chukhny, at the entrance to the village to the right.
It's a very interesting place. In addition to the layout of the castle, there is also a so-called stone park, and many different handmade crafts, paintings, and a lot of interesting things that you can see. In any case, the exposition and the tour are much more interesting than visiting the ruins of the original castle (at least at this stage of its restoration).
Unique people live here! And the work they do is wonderful and necessary. I definitely recommend you to visit! After Kreva Castle, it's worth a trip here. From the host you will learn a lot of interesting stories from the life of our ancestors - Gedemin, Mindovg and others. See a wonderful replica of a castle made of small bricks, go through a seven-turn maze, buy wonderful souvenirs and take a lot of cool photos. I was pleased with the possibility of paying by ERIP. The cost is only 2 rubles per person. Children under 10 years old are free! Souvenirs for every taste at pleasant prices. But most importantly, wonderful people who are passionate about their work!
Although we haven't been inside, it's impressive even from the outside, especially the realization that this building is about 600 years old! I also liked it on Yurieva Gora. The church and the church are not new, they impress both from the outside (including approaches to them with high stairs and views from them) and inside.
It's not very easy to find, there are no pointers to it. You can drive up from two sides to the village of Chukhny. Unfortunately, no one answered the calls, and there was no time to wait. But even from the street, 90% of everything is visible. The one who built the layout is a huge fellow! Admission is 2 RB rubles per person.
A great place, just watch the opening hours, and don't be like us)). It doesn't work on Monday. Excellent view from the Yurieva mountain (it's forward and up another 500 meters)
It's a great place. I recommend visiting after the ruins of the Kreva castle itself. The hospitable hosts will show and tell you about the castle for a nominal fee, each visitor will be given a ticket in the form of a brick of their own manufacture. You can take photos, buy interesting handmade souvenirs, the choice of which is simply huge. I wish the owners perseverance, patience and good luck in implementing their plans!
It's a very cool place. Sergey, the project manager, created this layout with his own hands and continues to work on the castle. In addition to the layout itself, you will find a museum of souvenirs here, which, by the way, can be purchased for a small fee. Sergey also collects interesting boulders, which he also places on his site and makes seven-turn labyrinths. You can see them on his site and on the Solovetsky Islands.
Super! It is clear that the person has put his whole soul into the work, everything is as real, I strongly advise you to see it firsthand. It's worth it.
This is a super place, the owners are really cool people and wanted to, and created such a cool place in their yard!! Well done, I take off my hat to them!!
An unexpectedly gorgeous place! It goes very close to the Kiev castle! The guide is a very charming woman, knows a lot of colorful stories about the Middle Ages
Awesome Not everything is done yet, but it is very interesting. And they will take a tour, tell you about the castle. And the tickets are homemade bricks from the castle. Very cool!!! I advise everyone.
It's hard to tell! It is necessary to see and listen to it! There are a lot of souvenirs, my eyes are running away. And the development plans are limitless.

A must-visit after the Kreva Castle itself. Interestingly, the friendly host is conducting an excursion. There is a souvenir shop, which you can buy to support the project.
The layout is not finished yet. The road to it is bad. The excursion (lecture), although it costs only 2 rubles, is not informative. The guys did well, they tried, but they haven't finalized it yet.
