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.

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....

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!

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.

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)!!!

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.

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.

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.. :)

The building itself and its history are very interesting, but... According to tradition, every day at 12 o'clock in the afternoon, a trumpeter rises to the observation deck of the tower and performs a small musical piece, but.... Alas, I did not see any of this

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.

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!!

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.

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).

The building itself is not of any particular interest, I looked and passed by).... But every day, at exactly 11.58 a.m., a trumpeter in the form of a "fireman" rises on it and performs works by Belarusian composers. The main thing here is not to miss, the performance lasts 2 minutes.

A magnificent atmospheric place!
Do not forget at 12.00 the fireman blows a melody from the tower.

I definitely recommend you to visit!

It's a wonderful place, at 11.58 am a real trumpeter plays a melody on top of the tower, and no one knows which one he will choose. There is an interesting panel on the building of the fire station.

It's quite an interesting topic when a trumpeter comes out every day at 12.00 and plays. The only thing I didn't like was that we started 2 minutes earlier and finished very quickly

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

A minimalist object has been turned into an excellent art object. Interesting exposition and good quality of painting, the Bugler is of course the highlight of the place. Even the cars stop while he's playing
Beautiful, stylish, with a story.

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.

The tower comes from history! But the most important thing happens at noon.... Every day, a pipe in the shape of a fireman comes out to the very top of the tower and plays a melody! Thus, we inform the city that everything is calm, there are no fires! It's cool!
