Edward Voynilovich Square is a cozy corner in the center of Minsk, located near the <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/recreation/parks/95/description">Independence Square</a> and known for its green spaces and the "Youth" fountain, created in 1977. The fountain features figures of a young man and woman holding bowls from which water flows, creating a romantic atmosphere.

The square retains a two-story building from the early 20th century, which houses the Museum of the History of Belarusian Cinema. The square is named in honor of Edward Voynilovich, a Belarusian and Polish public figure known as the founder of the Red Church. Voynilovich, who was elected to the State Duma of the Russian Empire three times, built this church in memory of his early-deceased children, Simone and Elena.

Edward Voynilovich Square was officially named so in 2017 after lengthy public discussions and suggestions from the Catholic community. The initiative received support from the city executive committee and gathered more than two thousand signatures from Minsk residents.

Today, it is a quiet place to relax, where you can enjoy the greenery, feed ducks in the pond, visit the museum, and simply stroll away from the city hustle.

爱德华·沃伊尼洛维奇广场 是明斯克市中心的一个舒适角落，位于 <a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/recreation/parks/95/description">独立广场</a> 附近，以其绿化带和1977年建造的“青春”喷泉而闻名。喷泉由一位年轻男子和一位年轻女子的雕像组成，他们手捧水碗，水从碗中流出，营造出浪漫的氛围。

广场上保留了一座20世纪初的两层建筑，内设有白俄罗斯电影历史博物馆。广场以爱德华·沃伊尼洛维奇的名字命名，他是白俄罗斯和波兰的公共人物，以创办红教堂而闻名。沃伊尼洛维奇曾三次当选为俄罗斯帝国国会成员，他为纪念早逝的子女西蒙和海伦而建造了这座教堂。

爱德华·沃伊尼洛维奇广场 于2017年正式命名，此前经过了长时间的公共讨论和天主教社区的建议。此举得到了市政府的支持，并收集了超过两千名明斯克居民的签名。

今天，这里是一个宁静的休闲场所，您可以在这里欣赏绿意、喂鸭子、参观博物馆，并在远离城市喧嚣的环境中悠闲散步。
