The Church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul. The construction of the red brick church took place in 1897-1903 according to the project of Konstantin Wojciechowski. The temple was built on donations from both ordinary believers and rich nobles. Their names were stamped on the slabs around the main entrance and in the lower part of the walls. However, in 1947, the Soviet authorities ordered them to be covered with cement. Later, the church was closed altogether.
It was only in 1988 that the faithful were able to regain the shrine. The temple impresses with the beauty of its interiors. An artificial cave has a special beauty and originality, inside of which there is a chapel-grotto in the Art Nouveau style. There is a fresco depicting the main contributors to the church, its first priest– František Sokolovski, an architect and organist.
There is also a memorial plaque inside to Man Nemen, an outstanding Polish singer and composer who was born in Starye Vasilishki, was baptized in this church, and his father worked as an organist.

It is necessary to see it, to take part in the service, to hear the organ. At one time, people invested everything they could into the church, and during the period of atheism, they kept the property safe. We got to a reception in Moscow with the top leadership of the country (USSR) and achieved our goal. At one time, the entire roof was replaced, just to save the temple. Thank them for everything they did. Today, unfortunately, there are fewer and fewer residents (parishioners) every year, but the next generations should know the history of the church and their Homeland.

A stunningly beautiful Gothic church! Required for the room! The frescoes on the walls are 100 years old, but they look great, wonderful stained glass windows, if the priest allows you to go up to the organ, then the solemn beauty takes your breath away! The priest is a very friendly, cheerful person, easily communicates, can allow you to listen and play the organ. Leave donations, the temple is aged, so some repairs are required. I highly recommend visiting, the building leaves a strong impression!

The beautiful, majestic church impressed even more than in Gervyaty. I would say that the decoration is unique and the priest is very hospitable. It's worth visiting the Czeslaw Nieman Museum here.

The majestic church. It is interesting to visit. We stopped by when we were returning from Grodno by car, it was already evening. I don't know what words to choose to describe my own, you have to see it for yourself.

As a passing landmark, it's good, we stopped to look, it's interesting externally, but it's completely empty from the inside, fortunately you can look through the bars! The territory is well maintained

The place is gorgeous.
You drive, admire the expanses, and see a majestic castle rising in the middle of the "field". Beautiful outside, beautiful inside: I especially liked the "ice cave", as if the author was inspired by Gaudi's works

An amazing Church, admired by the scale of the construction, we were lucky to get inside the church, inside it is even more impressive. There are a lot of statues of saints, incredibly beautiful stucco, it is clear that the church is being watched and cared for. You can walk on it for several hours and look at it, it's incredibly beautiful. If you pass somewhere nearby, do not be lazy and stop there, you will not regret it

A very majestic church towering over the village of Starye Vasilishki. In the back of the building it is written in Latin that the Russian tsar Nicholas ll visited this church. The church is very atmospheric and has its own interesting history. Don't drive by!

This is my favorite place. Right from the first time... A majestic temple with a history. Ksenz is always open to visitors. He will tell a story, play the organ, and even allow you to climb the bell tower. And you can thank him by leaving a donation.

We arrived on a weekday, the church is closed. But besides us, there were other people who came here on purpose. We went to look for the priest's house, found it, knocked and asked to open the church. He did not refuse, but he did not tell me anything, it was obvious that the mood was not there. Maybe we woke him up)) The exterior and interior decoration are impressive.

We were driving from Lida to Grodno and decided to visit local attractions on the way. The church impresses with its beauty and scale. It can be seen from afar. It's amazing that in the middle of a small village there is such a huge thing)) even the Red Church in Minsk is smaller, it seems to me. Definitely worth a look if you're passing by. Recommendation!

A grandiose historical, architectural and religious building in a small village. It is noteworthy that on the facade of the church you can find six-pointed stars of David, in memory of the local Jewish community, which provided financial support for the construction of the temple.

I was just driving by, saw and.... Really impressive.
The village is almost a thousand years old. The church is a little smaller.
In terms of preservation and authenticity - ten out of ten stories!
