The Church of St. John the Baptist. The construction of the stone church began in 1769 on the site of the wooden one. The new church was consecrated on November 30, 1790. There was a Dominican monastery attached to the church.
After the suppression of the national liberation uprisings of 1830-31 and 1863-64, the Russian authorities first liquidated the monastery, and then transferred the temple to the Moscow Church. The monastery building was also demolished at the same time.
In 1919, the authorities of interwar Poland returned the church to Catholics. In 1922-28, the church was reconstructed with the restoration of its original appearance.
After the Second World War, the Soviet authorities closed the church. Services resumed here only in 1980.
Nowadays, the church has been restored and is in very good condition. Inside, I advise you to look at the 7 knock altars in the Rococo style. The territory is surrounded by rubble fencing with gates.

A delightful Church.
It's worth coming there and taking a good look inside and out.
Very beautiful.
The service has a very bad sound from the speakers, I hope they will correct it.
