On Kastrychnickaja Square is the the huge palace of the people that harbours a concert hall with 2,700 seats. Along the concrete embedded Svislac river are forest-like parks, the opera house is on a hill. The Trinity quarter looks like a Franconian small town with some historic waterfront houses, cafes, and restaurants. Up on a hill the orthodox Holy Ghost Church (baroque style, 1642-87), next to a chapel. The City Hall dating from the 16th century burned down in the last century and was rebuilt in its original style in 2003.
