A tall, beautiful and very elegant tower! There is a museum of firefighting in the building, but we did not get there, we were walking past on a guided tour. There are many images of people of different professions on the pediment (look for familiar faces, the artist did his best)). But they couldn't deny themselves the pleasure of listening to the trumpeter! Very poetic and romantic. Truth. Listen up. They say that the melodies are always different, maybe you will have another one with a different mood, I don't know.
Unfortunately, the video doesn't fit for about a minute and a half....

We are very pleased with our visit to this museum! Small groups and amazing guides! Everyone is attentive and friendly! And of course a wonderful view of the city from the fire tower. There are several nuances. If you come in and the door is closed, most likely there is a guided tour. Tickets can only be purchased by bank transfer. Transfer to the account of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. Or run to the bank to pay the bill. But it's better to call in advance.

An interesting historical object, a worthy museum, a great guide Irina Kachan, who not only conducts excursions, but also knows a lot about the history of firefighting. You need to sign up.

Fire column in Grodno: a symbol of history and a reminder of the importance of safety
A visit to Grodno cannot be complete without getting acquainted with its historical heritage, and the fire column is a vivid example of this. A small but important part of the city's history, it reminds us of a time when we had to rely on simple but effective equipment to fight fire.
The column looks very atmospheric, and its location in the city center adds charm. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it is still functional! This is a reminder of how important it is to be prepared for any situation and not forget about safety.
I recommend all tourists to visit this interesting landmark and immerse themselves in the atmosphere of Grodno.

A landmark not only of the city, but also of the country as a whole, which is worth visiting for both adults and children at least once. At 12:00, a trumpeter plays on the bell tower, different melodies according to the days of the week. There is also a museum of the history of firefighting. Interesting

Everything is very cool, despite the lack of greenery due to the time of year! One can only imagine how cool it is from mid-April to October - November! And you definitely need to hear the trumpeter's signal on the observation deck of the fire tower!

The fire tower in Grodno is one of the main attractions. It is not only her appearance and the magnificent panel dedicated to firefighters that attracts the attention of tourists. And most importantly, the daily ritual that takes place on top of this tower. Every day, at 12 o'clock, a trumpeter, in a beautiful uniform, goes out on the balcony of the tower and plays some piece of music. I've heard that the melodies are always different. A huge crowd gathers long before this action and at the end of the ritual accompanies the musician with applause. I recommend that everyone who comes to Grodno definitely appreciate the trumpeter's playing!

A city landmark. A landmark place in the city of Grodno. They say that every day at some time, a bugler comes out and plays the trumpet (if I'm not confusing, of course :). I was passing through the other day, they decorated it beautifully, illuminated both the column and the typewriter. An atmospheric place, beautiful photos are obtained.. :)

An interesting history of the fire tower, with ventilation. Every day at noon, a firefighter gets up and plays a 2-3 mile tune, which means: Everything is quiet in the city. The mural with the rescuers, the last girl on the right looks like the Mona Lisa. There is a fire truck with a firefighter, great photos! Nearby there is a synagogue, parking, Bakst restaurant.

The tower is very interesting, it is one of the sights of Grodno. It and the building of the adjacent fire station should be carefully considered. Especially what is drawn. It is better to approach the tower at 11.55 and stay late. Then at 12.00 you will see and hear something (surprise)!!!

An interesting building that allows you to feel the time. The most interesting thing is that at 12:00 a bugler is blowing on the tower. People are going to watch, listen, and generally see the surrounding ancient neighborhoods. You must watch and listen.

A tower, like a tower. You can watch it once. It was a good idea, every day at 12.00 a trumpeter in an old firefighter's uniform performs different melodies. By this time, tourists are gathering and here is a good attraction. I liked the expression of a local "blogger", that there is a legend in the city that you can climb this tower, but no one knows how to do it. I tried to find out in the surrounding retail outlets and in the fire department office how to get to the site, everywhere there is one answer - the stairs are in disrepair, climbing the tower is prohibited. The highlight of the official statements was the fact that just at that time I observed 5-6 people walking on the platform of the tower, but most likely they were the souls of former fire chiefs.

A trumpeter plays every day at 12 p.m. There is a bench near the fire station, on the back of which a man-hose flaunts. The Old and New Castles are located nearby. So you will not pass by).

In addition to the tower, which is especially noteworthy at night, when lights are lit on it, the area itself is notable with many cafes and squares where you can listen to live music and drink craft beer and spirits in the dzichka bar.

The highlight of Grodno is attractive and memorable to everyone who saw this engineering and architectural structure for the first time.
The location, walking accessibility and the intersection point of many tourist routes make this object particularly memorable.
It is beautiful and functional at any time of the day and a little bit - a real decoration of the city!

Grodno is a beautiful old European city, prices in cafes and restaurants are Moscow, coffee is expensive everywhere, but the taste is different)) there is an old fortress nearby (in fact, a new model, there is nothing to see there ((( very weak. And the museum, the museum is even worse, no historical value!!

It's a cool place. For some reason, the locals don't like a shop with a fireman (the seller in the nearby souvenir shop told us so). A firefighter in a retro uniform rises to the tower itself every day around 12:00 and plays a melody on the trumpet. We looked at this little performance with pleasure

In 1885, a terrible tragedy occurred that deprived almost the entire city of housing - the largest fire in the entire history of the city, which Grodno residents still remember…
And every day at exactly 12 p.m., a trumpeter blows here on this tower as a sign that everything is calm in the city! And it plays different tunes every day!
If you are in Grodno, set a route so that you will be nearby at 12:00

They announced to us, as a local landmark, a trumpeter was supposed to play at 12. By this time, crowds of people had come and were standing with their heads up. At 12, the musician came out, faked a little and left. I was not impressed.

From here it is convenient to start a walk through the center of Grodno, as there is a large parking lot next to the tower and the synagogue. On the building of the tower, everyone usually looks for "Giaconda", a local girl who was painted by the artist, in a uniform very similar to her :)

There is no such thing in any city. The bugler plays in the tower at 12 o'clock. This is very unusual. Although the game is not long, it is fascinating by the uniqueness of the fact itself.

Grodno is beautiful! It is worth visiting the tower to watch and listen to how every day at 12 o'clock in the afternoon a firefighter on the topmost platform performs a beautiful melody on the pipe, which means: "everything is quiet in the city"! It is better to look from the other side of the road, through the intersection at the corner (diagonally)
It would just be interesting to take a closer look at this firefighter musician! Why doesn't he go out to people? As in Brest, when a lamplighter lights lanterns in the evening, you can touch the button on his jacket and make a wish!
And keep in mind that there is an Old castle nearby, and a lot of tourists gather at this time. Therefore, it is better to see the castle before the tower.
