Minsk City Hall
About This Museum
Standing proudly on Ploshchad' Svobody, the Minsk City Hall is a symbol of civic pride that has been meticulously reconstructed to anchor the city's historic heart. Its elegant, pale facade and stately clock tower feel both timeless and surprisingly alive, a far cry from a dusty archive. Inside, you don't just see history—you walk through it, from detailed models of old Minsk to the very symbols of its self-governance. The atmosphere is one of quiet grandeur, connecting you directly to the generations who have shaped this city.
Collection Highlights
The star of the show is undoubtedly the intricate scale model of 19th-century Minsk, a miniature world that reveals a city long since transformed. You'll also find the historic city seal and magistrate's regalia, which speak volumes about Minsk's journey toward autonomy.
