Memorial Complex «Praryŭ»

The Memorial Complex Praryŭ is a site in Ushachi featuring sculptures and structures that represent wartime experiences of the local population. The complex includes outdoor installations and indoor spaces where photographs and documents from the period are displayed.

The memorial was established in 1974, created at a time when Belarus was building places to preserve memories of the war. It was founded to document the stories of those who fought and died in this region.

The name Praryŭ refers to a breach or wound, reflecting how the war cut through local communities. Visitors can sense how the site serves as a meeting place for remembrance and family connections to this period.

The site is located in a rural area and is best visited during daylight when all details of the sculptures and installations are visible. Visitors should allow time to explore both the outdoor grounds and the indoor exhibition spaces.

The artistic design of the site blends abstract forms with realistic representations, setting it apart from other war memorials in the region. This mix of artistic styles creates an emotional experience that goes beyond simple historical information.
