Kapyly ( Belarusian Капылы ; Russian Копылы ) is a village in Wjarchowitski Selsawjet , Kamenets District , Brest Region , Belarus . The zip code is 225073.

The place is located about 35 kilometers (as the crow flies) north-northwest of Brest . The state border is close, the municipality of Czeremcha in Poland is about 10 kilometers to the west .

In the center of the village there is a small lake, on its southern bank there is the Baroque castle, which was destroyed and plundered in World War II, the remains of the manor from the early 20th century and the associated manor house - a relatively well-preserved country villa in Art Nouveau style. The ensemble also included an extensive park from the end of the 19th century, which stretched along the west bank to the village and is still there as a reforested wood on the east bank. The property once belonged to the Roty family (von Roth). In the western part of the park in particular, the former park landscape has been destroyed by planting fruit trees. A farm was built on the north bank in the 1990s, which offers the village some work opportunities. Many buildings from the former estate, including solid agricultural buildings, are poorly preserved and partially destroyed.
