Savieckaja Street 39, Homieĺ, Cultural heritage building in Homieĺ, Belarus.
Savieckaja Street 39 is a two-story classicist building in central Homieĺ, Belarus, designed as a school in the 19th century. Its facade features evenly spaced windows and a symmetrical layout that follows the architectural conventions of public buildings from that era.
The building was designed by architects Ivan Dziachkov and John Clarke and erected in the 19th century to serve as a school. It has since been listed as a protected heritage site of Belarus.
The building on Savieckaja Street is one of the few surviving 19th-century school structures in Homieĺ that still shows its original form. Passersby can clearly read its public function in the symmetry of its facade, which was typical for educational buildings of that period.
The building sits in central Homieĺ and is easy to reach on foot from the main streets of the city. As a listed heritage site, it can only be seen from the outside.
The school was built around a teaching method imported from Western Europe that was largely unknown in this part of the world at the time. This approach reorganized how students were grouped and taught inside the building.
