Tatarskaya Slabada (; ), also known as Tatarski Kanets (Tatar End), is a historical settlement in Minsk, Belarus, located west and northwest of the old city centre on the low left bank of the Svislach river. First recorded in 1428, it was settled by Lipka Tatars and persisted as a distinct community until the mid-20th century.
Archaeological excavations conducted in 1945 by V. R. Tarasenko found remains of dwellings and artefacts indicating that a suburban settlement existed on the site in the 12th and 13th centuries. Before the 16th century, the area was known as Pyatnitski End (ÃÂÃÂÃÂýÃÂÃÂúàúðýõÃÂ).
The settlement's name derives from the Crimean Tatars captured during raids on Belarusian lands and defeated at the Battle of Kletsk in 1506, who were settled in this part of the city. Some historians suggest that Tatar settlement in Minsk began earlier, during the reign of Grand Duke Vytautas.
The settlement consisted mainly of wooden one- and two-storey houses surrounded by gardens. Local Tatars were the main suppliers of vegetables and fruit for Minsk's markets. The only tall building was a local mosque (Minski Myachet; ).
Tatarskaya Slabada was devastated during World War II. During postwar reconstruction, a large part of the settlement, including the mosque, was demolished to clear land for Parkavaya Mahistral avenue (later Praspekt Masherava, now Praspekt Peramozhtsau). The area is now occupied by high-rise office and residential buildings from the 1960s to the 1980s. The traditional Lipka Tatar residents were dispersed across the city and no longer have a cultural settlement area.
