A monument to a very significant person of his time.
I found out on the tour how talented he was. I am attaching, by the way, photos of drawings of his poems🤗 very unusual)

A very majestic monument that makes it easy to understand that in front of you is not a simple monk, but a spiritual writer, theologian, poet, playwright, mentor of kings and princesses

The reader may be surprised, but
"The real name of the educator is Samuel Gavrilovich Petrovsky-Sitnyanovich.
He was nicknamed Polotsk by his place of birth, since it was in the ancient Belarusian city that the future theologian, scientist, poet and playwright was born in 1629.
<...> Russian Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich invited him to take up the upbringing of his children; Princess Sophia later spoke of Polotsk as her spiritual mentor."
According to the source victoriaprokofeva
(Saint Petersburg, Russia):
"I am glad that Belarus has the wisdom to create new things without destroying the old! Vladimir Ilyich Lenin is standing opposite.
Well done!!!!".

A good place to relax with young children. There are trees and flower beds all around. The sculpture itself attracts children with the opportunity to climb it. Well, the photos in memory of your stay in Polotsk are good here.

The monument is installed in a small park in the city center. It is made quite realistically, dedicated to a great figure, an educator. It's worth a look.

I enjoy looking at sculptures, art objects, busts...Semion Polotsky is no exception. He is a theologian, educator, writer, and even his real name is Samuel, like one of my grandfathers! Previously, names were given according to the church calendar, and not at the request of parents.
