On the picture Trinity Suburb In Minsk.

It’s probably difficult to find a place in Minsk that would be better known to tourists than Trinity Suburb. This is the calling card of the city, the image of which can be found on postcards, stamps, souvenirs, and on some banknotes.

Trinity Suburb- historical district of the city of Minsk, located in the northeastern part historical center on the left bank of the Svisloch River. Its cozy streets and houses painted in soft colors with tiled roofs have become a kind of symbol of Minsk, imprinted on souvenirs and sweets. It was once the trade and administrative center of the capital of Belarus.

Name Trinity Suburb arose in the 15th century from the Church of the Holy Trinity, which was once located here, founded by the great. Around the 14th century, on Trinity Hill, the Holy Ascension Monastery, which has not survived to this day, was built with a wooden church of the same name, on the site of which Anton Maslyanka built a stone church in 1620.

Description

Along the narrow streets of history

A corner of the old city - Minsk of the 19th century - is comfortably located in the very center of the capital. Narrow cobbled streets, low houses, unusual layout - all this is the Trinity Suburb. And it’s simply impossible not to come here!

In those distant times, when the city was just beginning to grow, people settled in the suburbs that surrounded the upper city and the castle. One of the largest Minsk suburbs was Troitskoye. It was separated from the old part of the city by the Svisloch River, but already in those distant years, roads and bridges were built here, and communication with the city was constant. Regarding the name of the suburb, historians suggest that it arose in the 15th century. The suburb was named Trinity because there was a defensive redoubt of the Holy Trinity (from the Church of the Holy Trinity).

This suburb was also called Trinity Mountain; it arose in the 12th-13th centuries and until the 19th century was considered a suburb of Minsk. It was impossible to locate the city center here - the terrain was inconvenient for defense. In the 14th century, the Ascension Monastery was erected here, at which there was a wooden church, on the site of which Anton Maslyanka built a stone church in 1620. People began to settle around the monastery. In the 15th-17th centuries, earthen ramparts were built around this territory and ditches were dug.

The suburb was made of wood until the 16th century. It was connected to the city by a road, and later by a bridge. In the second half of the 16th century there were already two bridges. It was after the construction of the bridge that trade picked up, the suburb began to develop much faster, and the main street Troitskaya was built. Now it bears the name of Maxim Bogdanovich, and before that it was called M. Gorky and Alexandrovskaya. Along Troitskaya Street you could get to Svisloch, and from there along the Khlusov Bridge to the Lower Market, which was the oldest shopping area in Minsk and was located next to the Castle. In the 16th century, Trinity Street became a continuation of the main city street of Nemiga.

In the place where the beautiful opera house now stands there used to be the Trinity Market. A school was opened in the suburb itself in 1771; it operated at the Moorish monastery. In 1809, there was a big fire in Troitsky, after which a women's diocesan school and a theological seminary were built here (now it is the Suvorov School).




The Trinity Suburb gradually became a kind of center of attraction for various segments of the population. Here, in one of the houses, populists gathered and meetings were held. In addition, there was a city shelter founded in 1892. In winter, homeless people lived here and made their living on Trinity Mountain and the Lower Market. The nochlezhka stood next to the Alexander Bridge. In addition, not far from Svisloch there was the first public city bathhouse in Minsk, which was destroyed in the 1960s.

On the outskirts of the Trinity Suburb - on the very banks of the Svisloch - one of the oldest mills in the city operated. The city authorities did not want to maintain it themselves, since it required a lot of money, so they rented it out. Written information has even been preserved that in 1838 the “four-stone water-powered flour mill on the Lower Market” was leased on a security of 3,815 rubles for 12 years.

The Trinity suburb was inhabited mainly by artisans, merchants or military men - in general, people of the middle class. It was here that the famous poet Maxim Bogdanovich was born, and for some time the family of Yanka Kupala lived here.

The most destructive years for the Trinity suburb were the 1930s and 1940s. At this time they destroyed a large number of buildings of the Ascension Monastery, a Catholic cemetery of the 16th-18th centuries, an ancient street that ran along the Svisloch. The Great Patriotic War also contributed to the destruction of the suburb. Demolition of buildings continued after the war.

The reconstruction of this area began by chance. In 1962, Nikita Khrushchev arrived in Minsk. During the tour, he asked where the historical center of the city is and what is there now. The owners of the city were confused, since there was nothing to show the Secretary General. This became the impetus for the restoration of the Trinity Suburb. True, restoration work began only twenty years later - in 1982. They were conducted until 1985. The guards do not approve of the result of these works - the spirit of antiquity, the soul of the suburbs, has disappeared. But still, this place is one of the most beloved in the city, despite its decorativeness.

In Trinity Suburb there are a large number of cafes, shops, souvenir shops and museums. Among the latter, the Museum of Belarusian Literature, which is located on M. Bogdanovich Street, stands out. On Starovilenskaya Street there is a branch of the State Museum of the History of Theater and Musical Culture of the Republic of Belarus (V. Golubka’s living room). In addition, the Maxim Bogdanovich Literary Museum has been opened in the Trinity Suburb.

Having visited the Trinity Suburb, it is impossible to pass by the Island of Tears. This island is a monument to fallen soldiers. It was opened in 1996; it was originally intended as a monument to the soldiers who died in Afghanistan. Now the Island of Tears is intended to remind of all the natives of Belarus who died in wars on the territory of our country and beyond its borders. The central element of the memorial is the chapel; it resembles the Church of St. Savior, built by Euphrosyne of Polotsk. The base of the monument consists of figures of mothers mourning their sons. The angel also mourns the heroes who did not save them. The authors of the memorial were sculptor Yu. Pavlov and architects M. Korolev, T. Koroleva-Pavlova, V. Laptsevich, G. Pavlova, A. Pavlov, D. Khomyakov. From here - from the Island of Tears - there is a beautiful view of the Trinity Suburb, the Upper Town, as well as Pobediteley Avenue

Photos of Trinity Suburb

Trinity Suburb is a picturesque medieval quarter on the banks of the Svisloch River in the very center of Minsk. Cozy streets and stylized houses with tiled roofs in the Trinity Suburb have become one of the main symbols of the capital, today representing part of the historical reconstruction of Minsk.

A little history

The name of the suburb most likely comes from Trinity Church, founded by Grand Duke Jagiello. By the way, this was the first catholic church In Minsk. Another version indicates the existence toponym "Trinity Mountain", from which the suburb received its name. The settlement of Trinity Mountain arose in the 12th-13th centuries. on a hill near the Svisloch River. In ancient times the suburb was shopping center, where roads from Vilno, Polotsk, Smolensk, Mogilev intersected, and from the end of the 16th century, the city’s largest trading platform, the Trinity Market, was located here.

The suburb was built up wooden houses, in which artisans, traders, peasants and soldiers lived. The ancient layout of the suburb disappeared at the beginning of the 19th century. after a big fire and was restored in stone. In the 30-60s of the twentieth century, individual buildings of the suburb and entire streets were destroyed. In the 1980s and early 2000s, restoration work was carried out to recreate the architectural appearance of Minsk.

Trinity Suburb today

In 2004 it was started historical reconstruction Trinity Suburb, which over time was included in the Old Town complex. After restoration it turned into a natural museum under open air, where you can see stone buildings from the 19th century. In 2009, the square where the market was located several centuries ago received the historical name Trinity Mountain. The National Academic Opera and Ballet Theater of Belarus, built in the 1930s, is also located here.

What to visit and where to go? Top 10 Must-See

Trinity Suburb is a tourist mecca of the Belarusian capital, where you can see what Minsk looked like several centuries ago, as well as get acquainted with cultural heritage Minsk. So, we present to you Top 10 Must-See.

Living room of Vladislav Golubok

Trinity Suburb is a small museum island. And the first such object is a branch of the Museum of the History of Theater and Musical Culture of Belarus called "". Do you want to know about the theatrical life of the 20th century, as well as the fate and Interesting Facts from the life of the first People's Artist of the BSSR V. Golubok, then you should go to the “Living Room of Vladislav Golubok”.

At the Museum of the History of Belarusian Literature, you will be immersed in the classical literature of Belarus. You will learn how young poets and writers started; among them I would like to highlight the names of such glorious Belarusian sons as Vasil Bykov and Maxim Tank, Vladimir Korotkevich and Rygor Borodulin. Among them are unique collections of manuscripts, memorial items of Belarusian writers, photographs, rare books, documents, ethnographic materials and works of art by Belarusian sculptors and artists.

House-Museum named after Maxim Bogdanovich

The literary house-museum named after Maxim Bogdanovich will tell about the short but very fruitful life of the poet. It is no coincidence that the museum is located in the suburbs. The fact is that it was in the Muschei’s house that the future talented poet was born. Maxim Bogdanovich returned to Minsk only a year before his death. Bogdanovich's fate is tragic - from the age of 18 he suffered from tuberculosis and died at the age of 25. The poet spent the last days of his life by the sea, in Yalta, where he went at the insistence of his friends, but this could no longer save him. Upon entering the museum, you will have the opportunity to attend an open lecture or a museum-pedagogical lesson that will be interesting not only for children, but also for adults.

Bookstore "Vyanok"

It is no coincidence that the bookstore "Vyanok", stylized as a bookstore of the 19th century, is named after the Belaur word "Vyanok". This was the name of the only collection of poems by Maxim Bogdanovich published during his lifetime. Maxim Bogdanovich is a poet of the highest culture. He read in the original and translated into Belarusian Horace and Ovid, Heine and Schiller, Verlaine and Pushkin. He proved that the Belarusian language is not only a “peasant” language, that it can express the highest ideas, the most subtle feelings.

There is no way to get around the monument to Maxim Bogdanovich, which is located in the park of Paris Commune Square, next to the National Academic Opera and Ballet Theater. Maxim stands at full height and with his gaze follows everyone who deigns to pay attention to him.

House of nature

I would immediately like to note the building in which the House of Nature is located. It is unique in that here at the end of the 19th century. there was a synagogue. Women and men prayed separately from each other, thereby dividing the synagogue building into two parts: male and female. Today, in the building of the former synagogue, there is a House of Nature, which in an accessible form will help to open interesting secrets in the world of flora and fauna of planet Earth.

Sculpture "Girl with an Owl"

Today the sculpture “Girl with an Owl” is an unspoken symbol of the Trinity Suburb. The sculpture represents a girl holding an owl in her hand and standing barefoot on a fern. One wing of the owl is curved (the owl seems to be protecting the girl with it), the second is wide open (the owl shows them the way). Three blossomed buds lie on a fern leaf, and a lizard sits near them. The sculptural composition is located on a large boulder, next to which there are two more. There is even an urban legend associated with this sculpture. They say that near this sculpture, every poet must choose what is more important for him: a girl personifying the muse, a paparazzi - a symbol of glory, an owl - a symbol of wisdom, or a lizard personifying wealth.

Gallery of crafts "Slavutas" and "Slavuta masters"

In the gallery you can purchase original and high level souvenirs. In addition, in the Slavutyya Maistrya crafts gallery you can buy Belarusian belts, wooden and leather products, as well as paintings. Secondly, the seller’s story captivates you so much, his eyes sparkle so much that it is impossible to tear yourself away from the souvenirs and interrupt his story. And at the same time, sincerity is visible.

Pharmacy "Troitskaya"

The pharmacy in the Trinity Suburb in Minsk is not officially a museum, but still invariably attracts tourists. Why? There is no pharmacy museum in Minsk, and the pharmacy in Troitsky Suburb is the only place in the city where they can tell about the history of the development of pharmacy in the capital and give a general idea of ​​the pharmacies of the past. On the shelves of the pharmacy you can see samples of dispensary utensils, scales, old medical and pharmaceutical books. The equipment of pharmacies in Belarus was not inferior to that in other European cities of that time. The modern pharmacy in the Troitsky suburb of Minsk has a good selection of medicinal herbs. Tourists can come in, get acquainted with the interior of the building, purchase something from what is available and take a photo with the pharmacy building in the background.

The monument to the “Eternal Wanderer,” as Yazep Drozdovich was called by his friends and acquaintances, was erected on August 6, 1993. The sculptural composition represents the figure of Yazep Drozdovich walking along the road in peasant clothes and with a staff in his hand, with an easel slung over his shoulder.

Yazep Drozdovich (1888 - 1954) - an outstanding Belarusian artist, graphic artist, sculptor, folklorist, local historian, ethnographer, archaeologist and writer. The personality of Yazep Drozdovich is a symbol of the Belarusian spiritual Renaissance. He was even called the “Belarusian Leonardo da Vinci.” He embodied the image of Belarusian nature in a series of graphic works “Disnevschina” and tone drawings “Nature of Belarus”. He created a series of works depicting ancient castles and other architectural structures of historical and cultural value.

Yazep Drozdovich is the first Belarusian artist who touched upon the theme of space in his work. On his canvases, the artist depicted life on other planets (“Life on the Moon”, “Life on Mars”, “Life on Saturn”, etc.).

Yazep Drozdovich resumed the long-forgotten tradition of painting wall hangings. These paintings are unique and it was they that brought Drozdovich world fame. Today his collection is located in Zaslavl. It was in those places that he worked as an archaeologist, and at the same time he collected and processed common words and expressions for dictionaries, recorded folk songs and rituals. Drozdovich was also a talented sculptor.

Trinity Suburb (Minsk, Belarus) - description, history, location, reviews, photos and videos.

  • Tours for May to Belarus
  • Last minute tours to Belarus

Trinity Suburb is one of the most picturesque corners of Minsk. Tiled roofs, cozy courtyards filled with floral and coffee aromas - all this fits into a small block located on the banks of the Svisloch. It's hard to believe that most of its houses were built here only in the 1980s on the site of more ancient architectural monuments. Yes, the history of the ancient suburb resembles the fate of the entire Minsk, which throughout its existence was destroyed more than once, only to then rise again from the ashes.

Once upon a time, Troitskoye was the largest suburb in the city. Despite the fact that it was separated from old Mensk by a river, numerous bridges made it possible to begin settling these places at the dawn of the existence of the future capital of Belarus.

Story

The first settlement on Trinity Mountain arose in the 13th century. It is assumed that its name came either from the Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity, which was founded by the Grand Duke of Lithuania Jagiello, or from the defensive redoubts that bore the same name.

In ancient times, the Trinity Suburb was considered an important center of trade: there was a crossroads of roads from Vilna, Polotsk, Mogilev and Smolensk, and since the 16th century, the largest market in the city opened in this place.

In 2009, the square, laid out on the site of the former market, was returned to its former name: Trinity Mountain. On its territory there is the Belarusian Opera and Ballet Theater.

In the 15th-17th centuries, Trinity Mountain, the Lower Market and the Rakovskoe Suburb were surrounded by fortifications. The village consisted mainly of wooden houses.

Due to a devastating fire in 1809, the historical layout of Trinity was lost. The neighborhoods were restored in safer stone. In the 1930-1960s, during the Soviet “improvement”, entire streets of Troitsky ceased to exist.

There is a legend among Minsk residents that during a trip to the capital of the BSSR, Nikita Khrushchev asked to show him the historical center of the city. Minsk mayors found themselves in an awkward situation - there was nothing to show. They say that this event prompted local authorities to begin restoring the heart of the capital.

In the early 1980s, restoration was carried out here, which made it possible to recreate the architectural appearance of Minsk in the 19th century.

What to see

Today, Trinity Suburb consists of several blocks, and by walking through them you can get acquainted with the buildings of a typical urban development of the 19th century.

Among the places that are worth visiting while in the Trinity Estate, the following should be noted:

  • Museum of Maxim Bogdanovich
  • Museum of Literary History
  • House of nature
  • Crafts galleries “Slavutya Maistry” and “Slavutasts”
  • Book and antique store “Venok” with 19th century interior
  • Pharmacy "Troitskaya" with a unique collection of items from the 19th century

There are many museums, souvenir kiosks and antique shops, cafes, and galleries of folk craftsmen in the area.

Currently, there are plans to recreate the ancient appearance of Trinity, restore buildings in the Upper Town, as well as the core of Minsk - Zamchishcha.

general information

A characteristic feature of this quarter are its small buildings, which look so natural and harmonious that they are perceived as a single architectural ensemble. Historical, architectural and cultural reserves similar to Trinity Mountain (this is the second name of the area) exist in many European cities. But not every one of them can compare with Minsk in terms of the age of the first settlements: in this quarter they appeared a very long time ago and coincided with the initial period of the High Middle Ages, from which we are separated by almost nine centuries.

A kind of “mixing” of eras and cultures can also be seen in the fact that in this area there were the first Catholic church in the city and the Orthodox Church of St. Boris and Gleb, the Holy Ascension Monastery and the monastery of the Catholic order of the Mariavites, which have not survived to the present day. These include the Basilian convent of the Holy Trinity, which has only partially survived. Today, a quiet and measured life reigns in this part of Minsk. Not only Minsk residents, but also guests of the capital of Belarus enjoy walking and relaxing here, while at the same time getting to know the sights, visiting museums and exhibitions.

Excursion into history

The past of the Trinity Suburb is rich in events and is associated with many historical figures. Suffice it to remember that it was here, in the heart of Minsk, that the fates of two outstanding classics of Belarusian literature intersected: the poet, publicist, literary critic and translator Maxim Adamovich Bogdanovich and the poet, playwright and publicist Yanka Kupala (Ivan Dominikovich Lutsevich). The first was born here, and the second’s family lived here for some time.

A settlement called Trinity Mountain was formed near the Svisloch River, on a hill, in the period from the 12th to the 13th centuries. In those distant times, this area was the center of economic life, where trade routes from Smolensk and Vilna, Mogilev and Polotsk intersected. At the end of the 16th century, the Trinity Market began operating here, which immediately became the largest trading platform in the city. It was surrounded by fortifications, and Trinity Mountain itself was inhabited by traders, artisans, peasants and military men who lived in wooden houses.

Why did the suburb receive this name? There are several versions on this matter. According to one of them, the toponym arose from the name of the earthen defensive fortification of the Holy Trinity, according to another - from the Holy Trinity convent. However, the most plausible version seems to be that the name of the area was given by the medieval Trinity Church, founded by the Grand Duke of Lithuania and Prince Jagiello of Vitebsk, who took the title of King of Poland in 1386. Indeed: in 1390, the Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity was built in the suburb. It was built of wood, and at the beginning of the 19th century it burned down during a strong fire. Despite such a sad ending, this religious building will forever go down in history as the first church on the territory of Minsk, which existed for over four centuries.

Along with it, the fire in that year 1809 significantly damaged the buildings of other monasteries, churches and churches, which represented a single architectural ensemble that delighted with its splendor. Subsequently, the old layout was restored. Emperor Alexander I himself took care of this and gave the go-ahead for the implementation of the corresponding project. It was already restored in stone, but this did not save the historical appearance of the Trinity Suburb from the upheavals of the 20th century. It was affected not only by the war, but also by many thoughtlessly made decisions. For example, during the restoration of the Communal Embankment they tried so hard that its historical part simply disappeared to a large extent. And this was not the only loss...

Individual buildings and even entire streets were destroyed in the 30-60s. Little known fact: on the site of the square that is located in front of the opera house, in the 16th-18th centuries. there was a Catholic cemetery. And on the site of the Ascension Monastery, its construction dates back to the 18th century, in 1945-1946 the headquarters building of the Belarusian Military District was erected. In the 80s of the last century, some streets on the outskirts of the Trinity Suburb suffered an unenviable fate. One ran along the Svisloch, starting near the modern Suvorov School and ending in the area of ​​the Belarus Hotel.

Attractions

Despite the fact that the modern appearance of the Trinity Suburb is not at all the same as it was a century ago, true connoisseurs of antiquity love to come here. The knowledge that Maxim Bogdanovich and Yanka Kupala walked along its narrow streets is literally mesmerizing and mentally transports you to those distant times. Of particular interest to tourists is the quarter located between the streets of Starovilenskaya, architect Zaborsky, Bogdanovich and the already mentioned Communal Embankment. It is this building, erected in 1817 in accordance with the regular development plan for Minsk, that is the basis of the historical center of the city, which is under state protection.

The boundaries of the protected zone, which included the western half of the Trinity Suburb along with the second city hospital, were approved back in 2004 by the Decree of the President of the Republic of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko “On the development of the historical center of Minsk.” The same document defines the concept of reconstruction, development and use of both the territory as a whole and the real estate located on it. Three years later, the Council of Ministers adopted a resolution that determined the status of historical and cultural attractions of the Trinity Suburb, since a significant part cultural monuments of the entire capital is concentrated right here.

What has already been done and what are your plans for the foreseeable future? The western part of the suburb has been restored and has become a real open-air museum. Not only the general style, but also specific examples of stone buildings from the 19th century have been restored, and now these ancient buildings house museums, many retail outlets and cafes. It is planned to reconstruct the former Trinity Basilian Monastery, placing in it a business and tourist centre. It is expected that it will be connected by a pedestrian platform to the western part of the suburb.

The most famous in the restored complex of buildings is, for example, the Vigdorchik house (Communal embankment, 6), in which Dominik Lutsevich, father of Yanka Kupala, rented a house in 1890. IN former house Ushakova - the corner of Aleksandrovskaya Street and the embankment of the same name - now houses the Glass and Porcelain store. And few people know that in one of the apartments where the pharmacist Pavlovsky lived, populists secretly gathered and decided at one of the meetings to start publishing the magazine “Socialist Building”. At the address Bogdanovicha, 15 - then it was Aleksandrovskaya Street - at the end of the 19th century, a shoe workshop opened, which then grew into a full-fledged shoe factory. On the eve of the First World War, in 1913, the production employed four dozen workers and in just one year they produced shoes worth a considerable sum at that time - 55 thousand rubles.

On the street Bogdanovich, 29 there are several buildings of the Suvorov Military School. They are also of historical and cultural value. At the beginning of the 19th century, the premises of the main building of the educational institution were occupied by a monastery of the Order of Mariavites and a hospital. Until 1854, the building served as a church. After its transfer to the Orthodox Church, two editorial offices were located here: the newspaper “Minsk Provincial News” and the magazine “Orthodox Brother”. In Beilin's house, located on Zaborsky Street, 3 (it was built in the middle of the 19th century), there was a metalworking workshop, where the active populist Mikhail Rabinovich, then still a student at the St. Petersburg Institute of Technology, studied his craft.

The largest facility on the territory of the Trinity Suburb is the National Academic Bolshoi Opera and Ballet Theater of Belarus - the largest in the republic. Its building, located in the center of the Paris Commune square, was erected in 1935-1937. In the old days, this place was the location of the Trinity Market. As one of business cards The building of the Defense Ministry of the Republic of Belarus at 1 Kommunisticheskaya Street, built in 1945-1946, is also perceived. and is a monument of classicism.

Museums in Trinity Suburb

In November 1987, the State Museum of the History of Belarusian Literature opened in this area, becoming one of the most big museums Republic: it stores over 50 thousand different exhibits. Many manuscripts and photographs, rare books, personal documents and belongings of Belarusian writers - all this can be seen during the excursion.

It is a pity that the house in which the famous classic Maxim Bogdanovich was born has not survived to this day - a museum dedicated to his work would probably be located here. Since there is no house, the latter was placed in a building nearby. The opening of the museum took place on the 100th anniversary of the poet, in May 1991. Its exhibitions are housed in five thematic halls, each of which reveals a specific period in Bogdanovich’s life.

The older generation is probably familiar with the name of the Belarusian Soviet actor, director and writer Vladislav Iosifovich Golubka (1882-1937), the first People's Artist of the BSSR. An entire branch of the State Museum of the History of Theater and Musical Culture of the Republic of Belarus, which is located in the Trinity Suburb at st. Starovilenskaya, 14. As you know, the artist was repressed and sentenced to death. The archives of his theater have hardly survived. The authentic artifacts that you will see in the “Vladislav Golubok Living Room” (that’s the name of the branch) were collected by his employees literally bit by bit.

In addition to museums, you can visit a wide variety of exhibitions here. For example, regularly held at the National exhibition center"BelExpo" on the street. Yanka Kupala, 27 – many of them have international status. The collections of the private gallery “Famous Masters” are no less interesting. Here, at Kommunalnaya embankment, 6, products of modern decorative and applied art are exhibited. At 3 Storozhevskaya Street - this is the building of the Trinity Pharmacy - you can see old books on pharmacy and samples of pharmaceutical glassware. And those who are not indifferent to environmental issues are invited to the Museum of Nature, located on the street. Bogdanovich, 9-a, in the building of a former synagogue.
