Belarus specialists clear rubble of main tower of Krev Castle

Into the story step by step. And each new move is like the discovery of a century long past. Specialists of "Belarus" clear the rubble of the main tower of the Krev Castle. There's a lot of intrigue involved. This is where our destiny was made.

A portal to the prison has been found, where a crime without punishment occurred in 1382. However, the further, the more questions there are for academic science. Archaeologists monitor the work of people and technology. A monument of international importance.

The walls that Keistut's shackles heard, the prayers of Vytautas, the cries of his wife Anna. High school textbook heroes. The Union of Krev was signed here in 1385. The Prince's Tower is now forbidden to enter. The light at the end of the tunnel is working. It's like a history shop. Tape through the garbage of centuries. Hands separate the grain from the chaff of the past.

Oleg Dernovich, a leading researcher at the Institute of History of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus: “We are pilfering the layers, at the thawing prastor, at a certain pastle the collapse of Knyazskaya Vezhda would not be ”. Darechy, Davoli good Danish 1433 years, the storming of Prince Svidrygaylam Kraskaga castle. Svidrigail on the Stalitsa, on Vilna, take your throne. The squirrels of the squirrels, the squirrels of the squirrels, the squirrels of the squirrels. The Dacladays are ground tier. And all the way back to the ground, all the way back to the ground, all the way down to the bottom of the sky. There's a magchima nikaya little shuffling.

The Real Game of Thrones

Gothic arch in the interior. It was probably through that door that Grand Duke Keistut entered. And he was strangled in a real game of thrones - at the prize of his nephew Yagiello. Nearly six centuries of oblivion, no one knew where the threshold of the gloomy dungeon was. The dungeon level hasn't been excavated yet. Over 18 meters by 17 meters is the base area of the dominant.

Alexander Matyas, correspondent: The main vertical of Krevo – the Princely Tower – is now at a peak of about 17.5 meters. It was up to 25 meters. This is how it became in the First World War, when it was on the front lines. But even in this form, the stone is a symbol, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It also leaned, but it does not fall.”.

Grains and chaff of the past

Old masonry, they say, reliability, tested by time. Nothing is thrown away here. The cultural layer removed will be sifted. For almost ten years of restoration and conservation, one of the first stone castles of White Russia collected thousands of artifacts. But where are they? Different vaults. Now on the agenda vaults to show what is earned.

Bread and shows

The experience of stylization, construction “under the era” is very close, in the Mednitsa citadel of the same age. Today it is Lithuanian Mediankai. Our Crevo is worthy of bread and spectacles. By the way, the foundation of the castle kitchen. And if it is preserved, then the building continues its century - the Charter of Venice. It's asking for shelter. Artifacts are here and nowhere else.

Turn back the past

In the future, fragments of frescoes in the Byzantine tradition, perhaps from the masters of the circle of Ulyana Tverskaya - the wife of the great lord Olgerd - will be digitized. And they'll get the full picture with artificial intelligence. The princely or the tower of Keistut is waiting for reconstruction, not a presentation in the form of a “solid ruin”. Turn back the past.
