About This Museum

Tucked away on Kalinina Street in the heart of historic Mstsislaw, this museum is a real treasure chest for anyone curious about the region's deep past. It feels less like a formal institution and more like a local key to unlocking centuries of stories, from ancient tribes to medieval princes. The collection is wonderfully eclectic, spanning from prehistoric flint tools to artifacts from the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. You'll find yourself piecing together the entire narrative of this fascinating corner of Belarus.

Collection Highlights

Look for the impressive display of Slavic jewelry and weaponry, alongside a scale model of the old Mstsislaw Castle that really brings the town's medieval fortifications to life.

Visitor Information

It's easy to find at Kalinina 49, and the small entry fee makes for an affordable and rewarding afternoon stop.

Architecture & Building

Housed in a charming, unassuming building that blends seamlessly into the town's streetscape, its simple exterior gives little hint of the historical riches inside.
