No, this is not an University, but very similar building, there exist a seven this kind of buildings in Moscow. Minsk is also very beautiful city, and almost completely built in this stile. I was there many timas and love Minsk very much))
I had beautiful recordings about the people , about the Ortodox Cathedral , about the visit to the Music Academy in Minsk . I had the opportunity to assist to the violin's class , singers class orchestra's class . They were nice and gave us a wonderful hospitality . I shall try to find some photos from there . I must have even a film (movie ) from that visit and from the concert . Radu
