Accepted answer

As of January 1st 2018 you can visit Brest and certain areas around it for 10 days visa free (77 countries). You can also visit areas around Grodno. http://www.belarus.by/en/press-center/press-release/visa-free-travel-time-up-to-ten-days-in-parts-of-brest-oblast-grodno-oblast-as-from-1-january_i_0000071906.html List of visa free countries http://mfa.gov.by/upload/17.01.11_list_states_eng.pdf

List from William's answer is visa-free scheme list for visitors from 80 countries entering Minsk Airport. Correct list for scheme of 77 countries citizens' visa-free-entering eastern borders is here: http://president.gov.by/uploads/documents/ukaz462.doc (you could put the text, which is in Russian, into Google Translate to see if your citizenship applies.)

You do need a visa to enter Belarus by land and visit Brest, and this has always been the case.

You can only enter visa-free at Minsk Airport or by land through the Belovezhskaya Pushcha National Park or the AugustΓ³w Canal, and you must then remain within these precincts, none of which include Brest.
