Today Vitebsk celebrates Town day

26 июня 2015

Town day is dedicated to two important dates: 1041 years since its foundation and 71st anniversary of the liberation of Vitebsk from Nazi invaders. People are the main wealth of the city. Marc Chagall, Marc Fradkin, Lazarus Lagin carried their love for their native Vitebsk through their life and work. During the Great Patriotic War the town was destroyed to the ground, and today it is a flourishing, cozy and comfortable regional center.

The holiday will last for three days. The program of celebration includes free guided tours, street performances and a competition for the tallest man. In the evening the Summer Amphitheatre will host a concert.
