Summer Trip to Navahrudak Castle

Last summer  my friends and I  went on a trip to  Navahrudak to see the Castle and to take nice pictures. It was sunny  and city was full of people enjoying warm summer days. We were there for around 5 hours and managed to see the Castle, Catholic Church "fara", Сatholic Church of St. Michael the Archangel and eat some ice cream in the city park and even feed a peagon!
The Castle was built in 14th century, it was also  restored many times after the numerous wars in which it took part. Unfortunately, the Navahrudak Castle is almost not preserved until our days. What we can see now is  the ruins of two monumental towers, and partly the grounds of the fortress walls.  And recently, the ruins of Navahrudak Castle were once again restored - and let me tell you, no t in the best way, and as an art historian I can say that restoration is horrible. Despite having a lot of money( and obviously the little part of this money was given to the restoration itself), they used new-looking briks, so the hole look of the tower changed( they renovated just one tower, the second one is still in it's original format). What was the best option here is conservation of the briks in their original shape, not a restoration with new briks. But let's forget about the sad part of the story and get to the outfit itself. 
So  as you can see this photos were taken in font of the tower, that was not restored. We didn't take pictures in front of the second tower, so on this photos you will see the best part of Navahrudak Castle.
