The artistic attraction of Baranovichi is the mosaic decorations in the interior of the Pokrovsky Cathedral, built in 1931 in the forms of neoclassicism. They are placed outside on the pediments and in the interior (seven compositions in total).
The history of mosaic decorations is as follows. At the end of the 19th century, the Alexander Nevsky Orthodox Cathedral was built in Warsaw according to the design of the famous Russian architect L. Benois. It was decorated with mosaic compositions made in 1901-11 according to sketches by V. Vasnetsov, N. Bruni, N. Koshelev and V. Dumitrashko.
In the early 1920s, by order of the Polish authorities, the cathedral in Warsaw was demolished. A part of the finished polished mosaic was transported to Baranovichi. These mosaic canvases were used to decorate the Pokrovsky Cathedral.

We were on an excursion. It's a very beautiful cathedral. The mosaic decorating this cathedral is simply amazing. The priest who conducted the tour told me everything very interestingly.

It is a very beautiful temple, I was there for a short time. The guard made a comment about taking pictures in the temple, although we behaved very quietly and modestly, and the priest told him to drive tourists out of the temple. There was a residue left.

We went in, the cashless did not work, there was only Russian money, the woman who sold candles said that only Belarusian money was needed, but she says you really need it, take it for free. We left donations in rubles and were pleasantly surprised by this attitude.

If you are in Baranovichi, be sure to visit this magnificent temple. Also because Vasnetsov's own masonry panels are inserted there!

I come here quite often. I'll put candles on and pray. Sometimes I attend the service. Last time I was at the Christmas morning service. I always come here when I'm nearby. It is a very warm and holy place. I just want to come here with all my heart.

I baptized my daughter there! A good place, despite the lack of parking and the high concentration of beggars. In fact, such ancient places should not be evaluated for any amenities.

There is nothing unusual in the architecture and interior
. The passage to the cathedral is only on one side, on the other sides it is densely built up by the private sector with fences around the perimeter. You must immediately look at the map to get to the main entrance, otherwise you will have to go around the entire block.

This is the oldest cathedral in our city, I always go there if I have something bad in my soul, I will visit it and everything will return to normal in my life, and so I also visit the new temple that was built in our area, but this is not what I will tell you one thing, at the entrance to the old temple - it is immediately felt, but this is purely my opinion!!!
