Edward Voynilovich Square

Edward Voynilovich Square

2 min. to read

Edward Voynilovich Square is a cozy corner in the center of Minsk, located near the Independence Square 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.
