"Voight with a key" is a common gathering place for tourists on excursions. So we saw it for the first time before the tour, and examined it in detail after it. But even so, it's difficult to approach him — there are many people who want to take photos with him, hold on to the key. This is not a monument to a specific person, but to the very right of the city to self—government - the Magdeburg Law of 1499, which was abolished after Minsk joined the Russian Empire. The town hall is nearby, and together they create a powerful image — the city's history was made here. The bronze voight seemed to have just come out of the town hall to announce important news to the townspeople. He holds a key and a certificate in his hands, and a plan of old Minsk at his feet. The details are worked out to the smallest detail — folds of clothing, facial features, map lines. There is a small replica of the sculpture in the Town Hall museum.

An interesting sculpture. The warrior with the key. It is located in the "event center". Nearby is the departure point for all excursions, the cathedral, a bench playing Aginsky's polonaise and a carriage composition. Mimi, don't come through. It actually looks beautiful, stylish and powerful.

One of the most famous places in Minsk is located next to the Nemiga metro station. An appointment was made here to start a sightseeing tour of the city. Traditionally, I rubbed the policeman's key for good luck) Despite the rainy weather, there are a lot of people in this location. The territory is clean and well maintained.
