Памятник Марату Казею, Bronze and granite monument in Central district, Minsk, Belarus.
The Marat Kazei Monument is a bronze and granite sculpture in central Minsk depicting a young partisan fighter. The figure holds a raised grenade in one hand and a rifle in the other, frozen in a pose of armed resistance.
The sculpture was erected in 1959 to commemorate a 14-year-old partisan killed in combat against Nazi occupation in 1944. It marks a pivotal chapter in the country's struggle during World War II.
The memorial honors a teenage resistance fighter whose story remains part of how people in Belarus connect with their past. Visitors come here to pay respects and reflect on a moment that shaped the nation's identity.
The monument is located near Yakub Kolas Square metro station on Kuibyshev Street and is easy to reach. Information panels at the site help visitors understand the history and significance of the location.
The sculptor Sergei Selichenov created the figure to capture a moment of resistance and sacrifice in an immediate, almost frozen way. This deliberate artistic choice makes the monument feel vivid and present for those who visit it.
