Viskuli

This 19th-century property features traditional Eastern European architecture with ornate woodwork, stone foundations, and a main hall surrounded by landscaped park grounds that once served aristocratic leisure activities.

Constructed in the 1950s as a Soviet state dacha, Viskuli gained international prominence on December 8, 1991, when the Belavezha Accords declaring the dissolution of the Soviet Union were signed within its walls.

The estate serves as a regional heritage preservation site, hosting cultural events, festivals, and educational programs that showcase Belarusian history, architecture, and traditional crafts including woodworking and embroidery.

Located at coordinates 52.6167 latitude and 23.95 longitude, the property requires prior arrangement for visits and offers guided tours with educational materials about Belarusian estates and regional history.

Viskuli stands as the only hunting lodge where a major international treaty dissolving a superpower was signed, making it a rare intersection of diplomatic history and aristocratic architecture.
