Description

Palace Butrimovich, which was built in 1794 on the main street of Pinsk, deserves special attention. This architecture is in transition from baroque to classicism. The palace has the elements of Baroque. There are concave curved contours of the angular parts, the oval shape of the main hall, the traditional division of the facade into two tiers and the contrast in their decorative treatment.

The palace is symmetrical. Three buildings make a front yard. Medium building is reserved for ceremonial rooms, side - for living rooms and offices. From the side of the river the building is represented by a small ceremonial courtyard, the facade has a more intimate nature. The decoration of palace interiors in general the baroque, but there are elements of classical architecture.
There are the Palace of Pioneers in the palace now
