List of cities and towns in Belarus

This is a list of cities and towns in Belarus. Neither the Belarusian nor the Russian language makes a distinction between "city" and "town" as English does; the word horad (Belarusian: горад [ˈɣorat] ⓘ) or gorod (Russian: город [ˈɡorət] ⓘ) is used for both.
Overview
Belarusian legislation uses a three-level hierarchy of town classifications.[1]
According to the Law under May 5, 1998, the categories of the most developed urban localities in Belarus are as follows:
- capital — Minsk;
- city of regional subordinance (Belarusian: горад абласнога падпарадкавання; Russian: город областного подчинения) — urban locality with a population of not less than 50,000 people; it has its own body of self-government, known as Council of Deputies (Belarusian: Савет дэпутатаў; Russian: совет депутатов) and an executive committee (Belarusian: выканаўчы камітэт; Russian: исполнительный комитет), which stand on the level with these of a raion (Belarusian: раён).
- city of district subordinance (Belarusian: горад раённага падпарадкавання; Russian: город районного подчинения) — urban locality with a population of more than 6,000 people; it may have its own body of self-government (Belarusian: Савет дэпутатаў; Russian: совет депутатов) and an executive committee (Belarusian: выканаўчы камітэт; Russian: исполнительный комитет), which belong to the same level as these of rural councils and of s.c. haradski pasiolak (Belarusian: гарадскі пасёлак; Russian: городской посёлок) (a type of a smaller urban locality).
This division was inherited by the contemporary Republic of Belarus from the Byelorussian SSR and introduced in 1938.[2]
As of 2020, 115 settlements had the status of a city/town. Among them:[3]
- 10 cities of regional subordinance;
- 104 towns of district subordinance;
- Minsk — the capital of the country.
