Minsk, Belarus, Magnet

A bold tribute to the Capital of the Last Dictatorship on the Svislach River where Minsk, the capital of Belarus and one of the most thoroughly rebuilt cities in Europe, rose almost entirely from the ashes of near-total destruction in World War II to become one of the most striking examples of Stalinist monumental architecture on earth, where the immense Victory Square with its 38-metre obelisk, the grand stalinkas lining Prospekt Nezavisimosti stretching 15 kilometres through the heart of the city, and the massive Palace of the Republic and State Circus reflect the Soviet ambition to build a showcase socialist capital on the flat plains between the Svislach and Nyamiha rivers, and where Minsk today, still shaped by decades of authoritarian rule under Alexander Lukashenko, nonetheless harbours a vibrant underground cultural scene, a passionate civil society, and a people whose extraordinary courage during the 2020 pro-democracy uprising reminded the world of the enduring human desire for freedom and dignity.
