About three hundred years ago, there was a Trinity Church with a Carmelite monastery here, these walls saw a lot. During the uprising of Kastus Kalinouski, the monks allowed the rebels with weapons to take refuge in the shrine. Later, the tsar's soldiers kept captured rebels in the cellars of the monastery, but the monks helped them escape through an underground passage, for which they paid with the closure of the monastery and its partial destruction. In the First World War, the German cavalrymen who made the breakthrough of Sventsyansky settled in Zasviri, and there was a hospital in the premises of the monastery. The burial of fallen soldiers was organized behind the church. And nowadays it is well maintained.

A very unusual church. It would, of course, be restored in a good way. The walls are peeling off from the outside. It looks a bit like an abandoned one. But at the same time, services are still being conducted there. But the monastery is in particular need of restoration, only the remains of the residential building have been preserved from it. There is also a chapel, a cross, a mini-temple and a military cemetery next to the church. Quite an interesting historical site, we liked it. We highly recommend you to visit!
