Malin House, Historic brick building on Volodarskogo Street in Minsk, Belarus

Malin House is a three-storey brick building at 9 Volodarskogo Street in Minsk, built in 1912. Its rectangular plan is covered by a gable roof, and the main facade has an asymmetrical composition with small balconies behind cast-iron openwork railings. The ground floor is heavily rusticated and separated by a cornice band; two rusticated pilasters run through the central part, and a narrow frieze with wreaths and garlands in stucco runs under the cornice.

Built in 1912 for Yudel Leizerovich Malin and his wife Haya Abramovna, the brick house at Volodarskogo 9 also housed the Minsk branch of the Peasant Land Bank that year. From 19 March 1918 the People's Secretariat of the Belarusian People's Republic rented the third floor; there, on 24–25 March 1918, the Rada adopted the Third Constituent Charter declaring Belarus independent. The building was nationalised in 1921.

The house carries the name of its builders, Yudel Leizerovich Malin and his wife Haya Abramovna, who owned it until they left the country in 1920. From 19 March 1918 the People's Secretariat of the Belarusian People's Republic rented the third floor, and on 24–25 March the council met in chairman Yazep Varonka's office and adopted the Third Constituent Charter. A plaque by sculptor Ales Shaternik, made in 1993, was never mounted; a second one, funded by the public in 2018, was refused as well.

Malin House stands at 9 Valadarskaha Street, on the corner of the former Zakhar'yewskaya and Serpukhouskaya streets, in the historic centre of Minsk. The ground floor now holds the Cheburechnaya cafe, so the facade can be seen from the street at any time; the upper floors are not open to visitors.

A memorial plaque to the 1918 declaration of the Belarusian People's Republic, made by sculptor Ales Shaternik in 1993, was never mounted on the facade. A second plaque, funded by public donations for the republic's centenary in 2018, was also refused installation. Look for the cast-iron balcony railings and the wreath-and-garland frieze under the cornice.
