A significant architectural object of the city of Grodno at the end of the 19th century in the style of late classicism.

The building of the current building of the Y. Kupala Grodno State University was built at the end of the 19th century. It originally served as a gymnasium for girls. It became an important educational institution, providing educational opportunities for women at a time when it was not so common.

The architecture of the building is made in the style of late classicism, which is typical for many buildings of that period. It is distinguished by symmetry, elegant facades and decorative elements such as columns and cornices. The interior has also retained elements of the historical style, which makes the building valuable from the point of view of cultural heritage.

After the liberation of Grodno in 1944, the pedagogical Institute began to function in the building, which in 1978 was transformed into the Grodno State University named after Ya.Kupala.

Now the building is part of the Y. Kupala Grodno State University, where lectures, seminars and other educational events are held. The University actively uses this historic building, combining traditions with modern educational methods.

The building of the university building not only serves as an educational institution, but is also an important symbol of the history and culture of Grodno. It attracts the attention of both locals and tourists who want to learn more about the rich heritage of the region.

Thus, the building of the building of the Y. Kupala Grodno State University is a unique combination of history, architecture and modern education.
