It is one of the most significant historical sites in Belarus. The place where Prince Vladimir exiled one of his wives after being baptized. The place where the Polotsk Princess Rogneda became the first nun in Russia. The place is very atmospheric and well maintained. The Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Lord has been restored, surrounded by a well-maintained territory. There is an embankment around the cathedral, in which an underground passage was discovered during excavations. Today it is visible among the excavations.

The most beautiful place in Zaslavl!!! It can be said to be a natural observation deck with a magnificent view of the city. The road, paved with modern stone, is the approach to the rampart. There is a mural nearby, and a river below. It's definitely worth seeing!

Shaft. There is a clearing inside. There is a lonely church in the clearing, obviously of a later origin. The shaft is not an easy shape, there are interesting gatherings outside. The gates clearly appeared later than the rampart. It would be even more interesting to pull up the history of this building. In winter, a lonely church, separated from the rest of the world by a rampart, looks especially interesting.

The Orthodox Church, which is located in a very unique place, where an ancient settlement was previously located, in the center of an artificial earthen rampart. The temple itself is very cozy, and gives a pleasant feeling of peace. When passing through Zaslavl, I recommend you to visit

A place where locals could conduct defense since the 12th century. With each passing century, the fortifications became more sophisticated, and since the 17th century there has been one of the first bastion-type castles in Belarus, surrounded by ramparts and moats. There were ramparts, part of the entrance gate- the brahms and the temple, which managed to visit the Protestant gathering, the church and the museum. Now it is the Orthodox Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior

While waiting for the opening on the Stalin Line, we found a landmark nearby. A very beautiful quiet place. Clean territory. There are toilets. You can go down to the river with reeds and ducks and a wooden fairy bridge.

The earthen ramparts are all that has been preserved from the Zaslavsky Castle. This place is simply attractive, as if you are entering a completely different dimension. Maybe because there is such a beautiful and unusual cathedral in the center of the ramparts.

I grew up on Rabochaya Street, next to this historic place. There used to be a club here, a music school where I studied. My favorite games were on the ruins of the church. Later, this old place was rebuilt. Every time I come to Zaslavl, I visit this place where I spent my childhood.

Who gets into the topic of churches and city ramparts. Here you are, there is a pleasant route, with a detour along the river bridge. By the way, there is now the beaver dam, well, like "kurobobber!)", etc. After walking around to the end, you can stumble upon a micromuseum, historical and cultural if I'm not mistaken. The servants there are old Belarusian, they came to me, I love this atmosphere.

Few places have a shaft so well preserved, usually everything has already been dug up and built up. And here you go and everything is clear: a rampart, a moat, a river, a church. Still, to rebuild the temple and place the layout of the castle, there would be a fairy tale. The place is well maintained. Behind the rampart along the river ecotrope.

The beauty of the sanctity of the Temple and the priesthood! The power of the deacon's ministry, as well as his economic focus on preserving and multiplying, is a sincere and strong example of an honest man at God's holy place!

At the entrance to the temple there is an improvised parking lot for 6-7 cars. The territory is well maintained. The structure of the temple is fascinating. One can feel the importance of the temple and the place around it for its former and present parishioners. I have fond memories.

The old masonry is not a large area. The church looks like an old building. Minus the toilet! It's the worst I've ever seen. Bypassed, there is a gas station nearby. Maybe they wanted to show how they used to walk in the old days....

It is interesting that it was originally a Calvian cathedral. The building has a dual purpose: religious and defense. The tower with a height of 35 meters was completed later. Then the building passed to the Catholics (Dominicans), then it was the Uniate church, the Orthodox Church. It is still there with a break for Stalinist times, when there was a flour warehouse and later a Museum of crafts until 1990. Few people bypass the building from the back of the entrance, and there is a sample of wall masonry without exterior cladding. And there is also a monument to the tsar liberator, though not very clear.

There is nothing special to look at, the remains of earthworks and a temple, we drove past because we looked, there is no point in going on purpose.
