Definitely need to visit. The real European Baroque. Built by an Italian. The preservation of murals, icons, sculptures and interiors in general is amazing. The atmosphere is very historical. Divine services are held there, and there are many parishioners. There is no way to enter the hall during the service, but most of the interior is visible in the vestibule. It's also interesting to attend a Catholic service, it doesn't look like an Orthodox one. This is one of the most interesting Catholic churches in Belarus.

And I liked it!
It's not the first Catholic church I've visited, but it's still beautiful, authentic, and fascinating!
We also want to express our special gratitude to the employee, unfortunately, they did not specify the name of the man who conducted the mini-tour for us, told us about the church itself, about the tomb, even touched on the history of Nesvizh a little.
With thanks and respect, we will definitely be back!

The must-visit Catholic Church of the Body of God, designed by the famous Italian architect Giovanni Bernardoni in the 16th century. Be sure to take an excursion, if you are lucky with a guide, you will fall in love with Nesvizh. A beautiful church with a rich history, the family tomb of the Radziwill family, the third in Europe after the Bourbon and Habsburg families, is located in the basement by order of Nikolai Krystof Radziwill "Sirotki". An orphan boy from Egypt brought a recipe for an embalming agent, the secret of which was passed down from generation to generation in the Radziwill family, which, unfortunately, was lost by the 19th century.
