The Tuchinsky public garden appeared on the city map in the early 1960s. At that time, a large housing estate was built here. Gradually the square was put in order, a system of ponds and landscaping was made. The popular name of the square is Antonio Gaudi's square, because of the large fabulous sculptures of animals, there is a hippopotamus, a seahorse, a frog, a fish, an octopus. The sculptures were designed by Minsk architects Leonid Genfald and Yury Kustov.
