Private Brest Hero-Fortress Tour

Go behind-the-scenes with Brest Fortress tour and see the greatest monument of the Great Patriotic War taking on one of the first battles of that war. Visiting this place will leave a mark in your soul forever. You will be surprised at the courage and heroism of soldiers who defended the fortress for more than 2 months, being completely besieged and cut off from the rest of the world.

The fortress consisted of the central island (the Citadel) and three vast fortifications protecting it from all sides: Volyn Fortification, Terespol Fortification, and Kobrin Fortification. The main significant places are located in the citadel: The White Palace, Museum of Brest Hero Fortress, Sculptural composition “Thirst”, Ceremonial Square and more.

Right at the entrance, the newscaster’s voice from 1941 announces the beginning of the war immersing you in the atmosphere of the complex. The first monument you’ll see is “Thirst”. Water supply system in Brest Fortress was damaged in the first hours of the battle. Despite the fact that the fortress is surrounded by a stream, all approaches to it were well shot. Thus, the defenders of the fortress died either of thirst or when they tried to get water from the stream.

Next is the most recognizable memorial of the Brest Fortress – “Courage”. To the right of it is a 100-meter obelisk in the form of a bayonet to a “Mosin” rifle. In between is eternal flame.

Also, there are 4 museums on the territory of Brest Hero-fortress. During the Brest Fortress tour we recommend our customers to visit one of them – “Museum of defense”. At the entrance you can book a professional guide service or audio guide (not included in tour price). The exposition contains a large collection of weapons, soldier uniforms and personal items, letters and awards.
