Om
Hurtige fakta: Den nuværende bygning er en trofast rekonstruktion fra 2004 af det originale rådhus fra 1602, som blev revet ned i 1857 efter ordre fra det Russiske Kejserrige. Dets klokketårn ringer hver time med en melodi komponeret specielt til Minsk, og pladsen foran huser byens officielle juletræ hver vinter.
Højdepunkter: Hold øje med klokketårnet ved middagstid, når en lille dør åbnes og en figur af en trompetist kommer frem for at spille en kort melodi, en tradition genoptaget fra det 17. århundrede. Bygningens kælder indeholder stadig originale grundsten fra 1602, som du kan se gennem en glasplade i gulvet i hovedsalen.
Insidertips
- Walk around the back of the building for a quieter perspective and a great photo of the tower against the sky.
- Combine your visit with the nearby Holy Spirit Cathedral and the Minsk Ghetto memorial, both within a 5-minute walk.
- The wooden models inside show how Minsk looked in the 19th century, giving context to the modern city outside.
- Dress in layers during winter: the square gets windy, but the interior is well-heated.
