The church is under reconstruction, but services are being held, the entrance is open. Majestic on the outside, but rather modest on the inside. However, it's great for a small village.

The Church of St. Nicholas. In 1653, according to the foundation of Fabian Kozel-Poklevsky, a stone church was built, which has survived to our time with alterations. In 1680, the church was consecrated by Bishop Nikolai Slupsky of Vilna. In the middle of the 19th century, the church was renovated. In 1903-08, the church was thoroughly rebuilt, it was significantly expanded. The lower part of the bell tower and the semicircular apse (now it is a chapel under a hemispherical dome) remained from the buildings of the XVII Century. During the period of Polish rule, parishioners bought a new organ for 16 thousand zlotys. In 1961, after the death of rector Kazimir Shileyka, the church was closed. A branch of the Smorgon Plant has opened in the building. In 1985, three bells were tried to be scrapped, only the most beautiful one was preserved. In 1990, the building was returned to Catholics, and Priest Augustine Kwiatkowski from Kobylnik came to the first service. On June 22, 1990, the church was rededicated by Priest Stanislav Kuczynski, who in the 1980s led an initiative group of local people who fought for the return of the shrine. After returning to the church, restoration was carried out, Vitebsk master Yuri Chapsky restored the main altar from photographs from the book "Svir and the Svir Church" by priest Yuri Zhemoit, written in 1930.

It's being repaired, but it's still beautiful. The building is impressive, fenced and located near the road. The entrance to the territory is free through the gate. There is an old bell and sculptures on the territory. It turned out to go inside only through the doors, the hall was closed, but it was visible
