Nesvizh by Christer Sundberg

Both the castle Mir and Nesvish was once founded by the influential Radzivill family and the Nesvish Castle is the more modern of the two. Beautifully located next to a series of ponds, it is well worth a visit but, but, but…..appointing the Nesvish Castle a World Heritage Site must have sparked some rapid investment from the Belorussian government to turn what has been used as a sanatorium for the last 50 years into a historical monument of class. Therefore the entire castle has been turned into a building site and will probably not be accessible for the next ten years or so.

Until then you can admire the beautiful park with several small monuments and statues, commemorating different coactions in the life’s of the Radzivill family or stroll by the ponds on a warm summer day or visit the nearby churches and monasteries in the town of Nesvish.
