Originally built in the late 19th century (in the old style), this building like many others in Minsk was damaged by the war. The building was reconstructed in 1949 and in 1958 the main front was rebuilt along with some other additions such as side wings. Between 2010 - 2013 the theatre was again reconstructed and partially rebuilt, this time to restore it to the original style in which it had been built. #architecture #building #theatre #theater #history #historicbuilding #minsk #citycentre #citycenter #belarus #walkingtour #easterneurope #europe
