A 15-minute walk west of the town centre in the village of Otradnoe is the charming Herman Brachert House-Museum, the former home of the sculptor whose work can be spotted all around Svetlogorsk; his bronze Nymph statue resides in a mosaic-decorated shell on the promenade. The house itself is small but the wild garden setting is lovely and decorated with more Brachert pieces, other works by contemporary sculptors and – looking forlorn in a corner; ruined statues of Lenin and Stalin.
