An interesting old place. An active church. It is surrounded by a stunning cemetery with very old graves, many with inscriptions in Polish. You can literally touch the story.

It's a very beautiful place. We visited the church on a weekday, so there were almost no people, which allowed us to enjoy the architecture and spirit of this place.

A beautiful church) inside it is very bright and peaceful) outside it also looks pretty. There is a cemetery nearby, as I understand it.. There are also very old burials with interesting tombstones.

A corner of antiquity. It's worth a walk. It's a very atmospheric place. It evokes thoughts about the transience of life. There are many ancient tombstones. It is interesting to read the names of those who lived before us...

Although I am Orthodox, but I went to the service for something. ... to the temple itself, there are no questions, but the territory is terrible! Everything is in disrepair, everything is overgrown, many monuments are distorted, like in a bad movie, but this is a historical cemetery!!! Burials from the beginning of the last century, and there are even earlier ones. And there were a lot of people at the service, so there is a parish, can't they get together and at least remove something? It's a depressing impression- it's a pity..

Let's just say the place is beautiful. The building itself requires at least cosmetic repairs because the paint is peeling off. Also, the territory is a little bit tired. A few hands and everything will be fine

The historical place of Minsk and Belarus. I was baptized here 😊 The renovation that was done here earlier was imagined by the parish. I really like. A unique place. It's nice to be here!

The church inside is very beautiful and small, but it's great for the parishioners.
