Viciebsk District

Vitebsk Unmissables

Vitebsk is defined by its artistic legacy and religious architecture. As the birthplace of Marc Chagall, the city features his childhood home and dedicated monuments, while the nearby Zdrawneva estate preserves the history of Ilya Repin. The city's skyline is marked by reconstructed Baroque churches, including the Cathedral of the Holy Assumption and the Church of the Resurrection. Every summer, the Summer Amphitheatre hosts the Slavianski Bazaar festival, while theatrical traditions continue at the Yakub Kolas National Academic Drama Theatre.
