Navahrudak Castle is a ruined castle in Navahrudak, Belarus, built in the Belarusian Gothic style and dating from 1201. It was one of the strongholds of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and the Teutonic Knights stormed it in 1314 without success, though a tower sustained substantial damage. The Swedes sacked it in 1706, and its ruins are now a cultural heritage site of Belarus that hosts medieval reenactments and theatrical jousting.
