Long ago Nesvizh was the most prosperous cities. During that times it was called the northern Paris. And all because the city was the residence of the Radzivil family. Radzivil Palace in Nesvizh is one of the most mysterious places in Belarus. It is believed that a ghost lives in the castle. A ghost is the spirit of Barbara Radzivil, the wife of Polish King Sigismund.
Mir Castle is the most famous  tourist attraction in Belarus. Get at least a sheep's head, imbedded into one of the walls of the castle. People say, if to get it out the castle will immediately  turn into a pile of stones. According to some legends, a few centuries ago the tunnel was dug underneath the castle, where the former owners had hidden  treasure.
