Tower of Kamyanyets
The Tower of Kamyenyets, also called the White Tower, is the main landmark of the town of Kamyenyets in Belarus. The name Bielaja Vieža, which literally means White Tower or White Fortress in Belarusian, presumably derives from the tower's proximity to the Belavezhskaya Pushcha Forest, but not from its color, which has been brick-red through the ages, never white.
