An architectural monument of the XV century in the late Gothic style, the oldest of the unbuilt churches in the territory of modern Belarus. In the 16th century, the church temporarily became a Calvinist cathedral, in the second half of the 19th century (after the uprising of 1863) it was rededicated to the Orthodox Church, and in 1919 it was returned to Catholics. During the Soviet era, the temple was closed, but it was not looted or used as warehouses, so the interior and interior were authentically preserved. Today it is an active Catholic parish. The temple has been given the status of a historical and cultural value of regional significance.

The church of the 15th century! One of the oldest in Belarus. Gothic style, laconic interior decoration. But how organic and beautiful everything is!

The oldest (of the undeveloped) churches in the territory of modern Belarus. It was built as a Catholic church. In the second half of the 16th century, it was adapted to the Calvin collection, and in 1641 it was returned to the Catholics. The church was built in the Gothic style. Elements typical of Gothic architecture are evident in the star-shaped and cross-vaulted arches with ribs, external buttresses, in the high gable roof, the decoration of the main facade and buttresses with flat niches of various shapes and sizes, in the lancet windows and doorways. The figured completion of the wall of the main facade and the soft curved outlines of the buttresses give the temple a sculptural appearance that softens the monumental appearance of the monument.
