We travel a lot around Belarus. As a historian by education, I considered it my duty to visit this museum. We paid for the tickets after searching for an employee, came to the halls and were incredibly disappointed. There are a lot of copies of belts, the exposure is very small and weak. It was interesting to look at the modern machine. In general, 20 minutes is more than enough for a visit, but I definitely won't recommend it. It's much more interesting in local lore.
We were with a group of 3rd grade kids this Saturday. I liked everything - they told me in an understandable language for children. The exterior of the museum is at the highest level, everything inside is also done perfectly. Recommend 👍
We also ordered a sightseeing tour of Slutsk, conducted by the guide Larisa. She talked about it in an accessible and interesting way. Everyone was very pleased. A five-plus grade!
we arrived from Minsk, decided to visit the museum, but we were not allowed, because at that time there was an excursion (of 2 people), and we could have overheard something. the rude "auntie" did not behave professionally, raising her voice insisted on buying a more expensive ticket and going on an excursion. we explained that we wanted to walk around the museum, see the belts and the tradition (going to the museum is officially allowed :)). we were unpleasantly surprised by the whole situation.
and at the end of September we visited the Narodova Museum in Warsaw, where we saw the native Slutsk belts.
A great place, we celebrated the wedding anniversary in a small hall, up to 30 people. Wonderful cuisine, you can invite a presenter with music. There was even a place to dance. I recommend.
It is not clear why the museum is not open on Sunday!
Everyone has a day off on Sunday, people come to visit from other cities. And it's not entirely clear why the opening hours on other days are until 23.00?
this is almost the only place in the city where you want to go. The city is famous for this - the Slutsk belts. I wish I could still go to the museum on Sunday
The idea of this museum is interesting. But... All the copies are there. Perhaps with a guide, on a weekday you will be shown the modern belt production process, and will be told in detail about the exhibits, etc. We were unlucky. We were on Saturday, there was no guide. We bought tickets (the ticket costs 8 rubles) and paid for the opportunity to take photos (2 rubles). The first hall was impressive, but then it became sad.
I would not call it a museum, but rather an exhibition.
I am sure that it is necessary to go there with a guide, then it will be much more informative and interesting.
