Palace and Park Ensemble in Zalesie - Oginsky manor
The Oginski Estate in Zalesse is one of the most famous historical and cultural landmarks in Belarus. It belonged to the renowned composer and political figure Michał Kleofas Oginski, who transformed it into a center of culture and arts, known as the "Northern Athens." The estate complex includes a neoclassical palace, a picturesque landscape park, a pond, and a rotunda. It was here that Oginski created many of his works, although his famous polonaise "Farewell to the Homeland" was, according to some sources, composed in Venice. After the composer's death, the estate gradually fell into decline, but in the 21st century, it was restored and opened as a museum and cultural center. -
