Novyy Zamok

Grodno, Belarus

Novyy Zamok (also spelled Novy Zamak or “New Castle”) is an 18th‑century palace located in the city of Grodno (Grodno), Belarus, standing just across from the older Grodno Castle on the right bank of the Neman River.

Built between the 1730s and 1750s for the Polish–Lithuanian kings, it was originally intended as a summer royal residence and a venue for the Commonwealth’s general Sejm, and its design reflects late Baroque and early Rococo styles by the Saxon architect Karl Friedrich Pöppelmann.

Over time the building served various roles, including as a military hospital and a cadet corps under the Russian Empire, and it was heavily damaged in World War II before being reconstructed in the 1950s.

Today Novyy Zamok houses the Grodno State Historical and Archaeological Museum, with several permanent halls displaying local history, archaeology, weapons, natural‑history exhibits, and period interiors, making it one of the city’s main cultural and tourist attractions.
