Understand

Get in

Train, car, bus connections are with the local town on the Polish side, Terespol.

By plane

By train

See Belarus. Get out: the customs control in the Brest train station is not very obvious. About an hour or so before the train leaves, you'll see people waiting at a railing next to some glass walls which look they open up to some rather bland and unused empty room. They look a bit like people waiting for arrivals at an airport, except that it's not obvious who they are waiting for. In fact, they are waiting for the customs office to open. If you're trying to leave Belarus, then join the queue a good deal of time before your train leaves. If you arrive only ten minutes before the train leaves, chances are good that the train will leave without you, not because the queue is too long, but just because the rules are strict.

By car

See Belarus. There are six control lines of various sorts at the crossing. Allow something like 2 hours to get through them all.

By bus

By boat

Do

• The Fortress of Brest-Litovsk preserves the ruins of a massive Soviet-era fortification that achieved "Hero Fortress" status during World War II ("Great Patriotic War"). Admission fee. Walking the grounds of this great fortification is a moving experience that gives a good sense of the privations faced by the forces that were besieged there.
