Travel Guide Kreva (Крэва)

Situated between Smarhon and Halshany, this small village enchants by the softness of its landscape. It is famous for the ruins of its medieval castle. Built at the beginning of the th century by Kurski, Prince of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, he served as an outpost against the invasions of the Teutonic knights, like the castles of Navahroudak, Mir and Lida. The atmosphere is extraordinary. Here, there is nothing reminiscent of the st century: no cars, no noise… The Orthodox Church Aleksandr Nevski (1854) dominates the hill near the castle. From here, a beautiful view opens onto the village and its ruins.
