Museum reserve Smolnya celebrates its 50th anniversary

14 июня 2017

The estate of Mickiewicz family, the place where Yakub Kolas created his literary works and images of the main characters became a museum of the Belarusian classic.

Kolas first came to Smolnya in 1911 after his arrest. Yanka Kupala, his friend and companion, also a classic, first came here in the summer of 1912.

Tourists even from Ethiopia and Argentina come to Kolas places. In the jubilee year of the classic such a cultural pilgrimage is not nonsense. Delegations, flowers and the bronze Colas remind us that the main monument is the one contained in his books.
