It is the main historical pearl of Zaslaval and is visible from any point. It stands on a hillfort where there used to be a fortress . Huge elevations are visible to strengthen the fortress, but now only a small part of the gate remains. The church has been preserved in excellent condition since those times.

Before becoming an Orthodox church, this monument, erected in 1577 on the territory of the Zaslavsky Castle, managed to serve as a Calvinist assembly, a church and a Uniate church. With the advent of the Stalin era, a new stage in the history of the church began: a flour warehouse was opened on its territory, and later a Museum of Crafts and Folk Crafts. It was only in the 1990s that divine services began again in the Church of the Transfiguration of the Savior.

The second Cathedral of the Minsk diocese, a monument of military and religious architecture. It was built at the end of the XVI century as a Calvinist church. In 1628 it was converted into a Catholic church, in 1833 the building was transferred to the Uniate Church, in 1839 after the abolition of the Brest Union the cathedral passed to the Russian Orthodox Church, in Soviet times it was closed. Indeed, it is an eventful story. The cathedral is located in the center of the earthen rampart, which once existed Zaslavsky Castle, and looks from all sides like on a postcard.
