Novopolotsk (rus.)/Navapolatsk (bel.) is a city in Belarus, Vitebsk region (voblast`). Translation of this name - "New Polotsk". Polotsk is a very old city of ancient tribe of "polochane" (known since 862 a.c.), was part of Lithuania since XIII c,. in 1562-1579 and since 1667 - in Russia, since 1924 - in Belarus republic and since 1954 - in Vitebsk voblast of Belarus.

According to one website I found, which lists sister cities of Rhöne towns <www.ville-givors.fr> as translated: "Novopolosk is situated in the north of Belarus, whose capital Minsk (200 km to the south of it) is twinned with Lyon. Novopolosk, which means "New Polosk" is a new town founded at the end of the 50s near Polosk (one of the cradles of Slav culture) around a vast petrochemical complex. It possesses a university.
