Come see the sights tourists are amazed looking to the sky red beautiful fairy's Church - the present Gothic style in the middle of an ordinary Belarusian village. It is called the red crystal or stone body, because a strong wind solitary standing tall building carved issue mournful howl.

Red Church - a monument of touching, sad and faithful love. It was built by the inconsolable widower Ignatius Lopatinsky - the son of a wealthy noble family, in memory of the prematurely deceased (in childbirth), the young beloved wife Mary.

The long-suffering Belarus has never abated sectarian war. In those days, the power belonged to the Orthodox. During the construction of the Catholic church could go straight to Siberia. Ignatius Lopatinskii lucky - royal officials considered it abnormal to have decided that he lost his mind with grief. Did someone come to mind to build a temple right in the cemetery?
