2. Memorial Museum-Workshop of Z.I. Azgur

5.0 based on 18 reviews
The Museum “Zair Azgur Memorial Studio” is a unique place as it is the only monographic museum in Belarus founded on the basis of the workshop of the academy of arts and Azgur’s private studio. The building was built for this purpose in 1984 and in 1996 after the death of the sculptor became the museum. This workshop was his most favourite one as it constantly inspired him on creating his masterpieces. Although the main mission of our museum is to preserve and populize the herritage of the great master we move in different directions nowadays as practically any museum nowadays. Various exsibitions of modern art take place here representing both well-known and forgotten authors. Besides we organize numerous cinema, music and theatre festivals becoming the platform for the development and self-fulfillment of the talented youth.

This is the place to learn about the way life was in Belarus in days past. It is a recreated village with separate buildings in which craftsmen and women demonstrate period skills--pottery, blacksmithing, cooking and baking, thatching, spinning, etc, Some of the exhibits encourage visitors to participate in the making of their products. There's even a demonstration on the making of "samogon"--a local version of moonshine whiskey. On the premise is an authentic windmill and the windmill owner's cottage. Visitors can go inside both the windmill and the cottage to learn about this important part of early Belorussian life. Also, be sure to visit the incredibly beautiful, wooden Orthodox Church on the premises. We took a personally-guided tour. Our guide was amazing. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and very personable. I consider this museum complex a "must see" and well worth a day trip from Minsk.

This is one of the saddest and most poignant places I have ever visited. In a quiet neighbourhood quite near the main Pobeditily highway and central Minsk, this memorial commemorates the death, on 2 March 1942, of near 5000 Jewish people taken from the nearby huge Minsk ghetto. Shot by automatic weapons, on one day, by the Nazi extermination troupe, overseen personally by Nazi General Commissar of Belarus Wilhelm Kube and Obersturmbanführer SS Adolf Eichmann. The place is silent, a deep pit with a roughly hewn statue of a line of poor hapless people on their last journey of life. This place leaves me with such sadness and also questioning. Who were these people who could shoot 5000 people in one day? What went through their minds? How could they live their lives after doing such an act. What did they tell their children? This is a profound memorial that reminds us of the inhumanity of humans.
