The heritage of the Krupki region: Gritskovichi-Kholopenichi-Yazby-Krupki-Khudovtsy.

Description

Discover the treasure trove of the Krupki district — a land with a rich history, unique architecture and unshakeable spirituality. This route will take you through key points, each of which reveals its own unique chapter from the chronicle of the region.


You will see majestic temples that have survived the centuries: the Transfiguration Church in Gritskovichi, an invaluable monument of wooden architecture that has never been closed to believers; and the picturesque ruins of the church in Kholopenichi, a silent witness to bygone eras, next to which a new life has been reborn.


Immerse yourself in the world of noble manor culture by visiting the abandoned Krasnitsky estate in Yazby, which preserves the atmosphere of the 19th century. There is a whole range of attractions waiting for you in the city of Krupki: the modern St. Nicholas Church is a symbol of spiritual rebirth; the Museum of local lore with its rich collections; and the elegant Svyatsky's manor house in Art Nouveau style.


The trip will end in the agro-town of Khudovtsy, where you will be impressed by the monumental wooden Church of the Nativity of the Virgin with its complex architecture and multi-tiered bell tower.


This tour is an opportunity not just to see, but to experience the multifaceted history of the Belarusian region, to walk the path from ancient shrines and noble nests to modern cultural centers.
