Yanka Kupala Museum in the village of Pechishchi

About museum

On an eye-catching steep bank of the Volga stands an original building with old masonry, built in 1895. It is the former steam mill of the trading house “Ivan Okonishnikov and Sons.” Since then it was converted into the Pechishchi Bread Products Plant. On its grounds in 1975 the only memorial museum-apartment in Russia of the People's Poet of Belarus Ivan Dominikovich Lutsevich — Yanka Kupala — was opened. He lived here while evacuated in 1941–1942. By summons of the USSR Union of Writers, the poet went to Moscow on a creative assignment, where he died on June 28, 1942. At present the museum consists of the poet’s memorial room, four exhibition halls and a lecture-exhibition hall.
