State Literary Museum of Janka Kupala, Literary museum in central Minsk, Belarus

The State Literary Museum of Janka Kupala spans multiple exhibition halls displaying manuscripts, photographs, and personal items of the Belarusian poet.

Founded on April 19, 1944, the museum moved to its current location on Yanka Kupala Street in 1959, replacing the poet's original house destroyed during World War II.

The museum contains over 51,000 items including autographs, portraits, and photographs that document the legacy of Belarusian literature through Kupala's work.

The museum welcomes visitors Monday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM, Friday until 6:30 PM, and Saturday until 6:00 PM.
