Belarus - Museum-estate of Adam Mitskevich


Museum-estate of Adam Mitskevich (Mickiewicz), a literary museum in Navahrudak, Belarus.

Sent by Vladimir from Brest, Belarus.

The Adam Mickiewicz Museum is housed in a two-story white building and displays personal belongings, manuscripts, photographs, and documents from the early life of the celebrated Polish poet. The collection also includes period furniture that provides insight into his world before his studies at Vilnius University.

The building was the residence of the poet during his formative years from 1807 to 1815. He then moved on to Vilnius University, which marked a turning point in his life.

The museum offers guided tours in Belarusian, Russian, and Polish that lead through six exhibition rooms. Weekdays tend to be less crowded than weekends, making them better for a more relaxed visit (read more).
