On September 7, 2012, the Mikhail Savitsky Art Gallery was opened. The artist is the Hero of Belarus, People's Artist of Belarus and Honorary Citizen of Minsk.
The gallery is located at 15 plošča Svabody in a former manor house of the 18th century with an outbuilding. At different times, famous residents of Minsk were the owners of the manor. At the end of the 18th century, the house belonged to Count Mikhail Pshezdetsky, at the beginning of the 19th century - to the nobleman Andrey Stankevich, then - to the local constable, well-known for his time cultural figure Yuri Kobylinsky.
The Kobylinsky estate was a meeting place for the creative elite of the city, and the owner himself was engaged in literary activities and collecting. The private collection of Kobylinsky was open to everyone and, according to researchers, became the first public museum in Minsk.
