The palace is worth visiting. Excursion was also fine. You can buy audio guide at the cashier and allowance for taking photos (1 rub each in july 2021) Administration: improve your pricing policy - include in 1 ticket all spots for sightseeing on the palace's territories. It's extremely tyring to pay by cash at every stop. In addition, at the tower consider enlarging storage facilities. You can even make them paid. It's tyring to take in 190 steps with back pack.
The centre of attraction in Gomel! River, ancient trees, swan lake and of course the restored palace, this place has something for everyone. Great place for a walk in the fresh air and beautiful scenery. A lot of eating options around as well.
Worth a visit if you happen to be in Gomel. Besides an opportunity to visit the palace, you get to see some beautiful rooms, and a few nice icons as part of the collection. You can climb to the top floor of the bell tower which is filled with exhibitions. There is also an audio tour in English. Unfortunately quite a few pieces of art have disappeared from the palace during WWII.

Reviews

The Palace of the Rumiancaŭ and the Paskievič in Gomel is a must-visit attraction, offering visitors a glimpse into its historical significance and beautifully restored interiors. The palace, built by Field Marshal Piotr Rumyantsev in the late 18th century, stands as a link to Russia's imperial past. Visitors can enjoy guided tours, explore the museum with its collection of antiques and paintings, climb the bell tower for exhibitions, and stroll through the picturesque park with ancient trees and swan lake. While some reviewers noted missing art pieces from WWII and suggested improvements in pricing policies for sightseeing spots on the palace grounds, overall it remains a highly recommended destination for those seeking history, culture, and natural beauty.

The palace itself links this small city to the Great Imperial Russian time-line and was built by the same architects who has built in Russian capitals. Very few house items preserved, but you can feel the spirit.

One of the great park in Gomel . Had very nice walk though it was getting wet due to slight rain and cold . Our friend Ivan explained the history of the Palace.
