Old Town park under construction in Korobchytsy near Hrodna: Opening planned for spring 2027

Construction of the Old Town cultural and historical park is under way at the agritourism complex "Haradzenski Mayontak Korobchytsy" near Hrodna. It is planned to open in spring 2027.

Work is in full swing, Telegram channels report. The main work on the capital structures is nearing completion, and stone paths are already being laid on the grounds.

According to non-state Belarusian media, the main work on the capital structures is being completed, and the builders have moved on to paving the stone paths. They are now doing interior and exterior finishing of the buildings, and props for the future park are being purchased.

The concept and content of the park, the same media report, are being developed by specialists in culture and education, as well as by Yanka Kupala State University.

Exhibits are being collected in parallel. An ethnographic expedition has already gathered dozens of items for the future exhibition. According to Telegram channels, the organisers are still looking for exhibits.

In total, the park will have 13 buildings. Among them are a town hall, a tavern, a cinema and a railway station.

A train is planned to be installed behind the station. It will become a separate photo zone.

Each building will be used for interactive and animation programmes: theatre performances, fairs and other events.

The main details of the construction are repeated in publications from different groups of sources: both in Telegram channels and in non-state Belarusian media. These are the start of the work, the stone paths, the list of buildings, the interactive programmes, the train photo zone, the expedition for exhibits and the opening date of spring 2027.

Some details appear in only one group of sources. Non-state Belarusian media are the only ones to report on the first and second phases, the area of the park and the degree of completion. Some descriptions are found only in Telegram channels.

The source of the original information is indicated differently in the publications: some outlets cite a Telegram channel, while others retell the same information without a reference.

According to non-state Belarusian media, the current work belongs to the first phase of construction. The park will cover 1.56 hectares. As of now, about 70% of the work has been completed.

The second phase includes a hotel with a bath and thermal complex, which will appear in Korobchytsy. It is not yet known when its construction will begin.

In our archive, Korobchytsy and Yanka Kupala State University appear together in materials: four separate episodes from 31 July 2024 to 5 March 2026.
