Belousovshchina. The Shvykovsky-Chernotsky Estate.

In the village of Belousovshchina in the Pruzhany district, the remains of the Shvykovsky estate have been preserved: a park and outbuildings.

According to local historians, the name of the place comes from the meadow grass "Belous", which grew in these places. For the first time in historical sources, the place was mentioned during the time of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the 16th century, when these lands were part of the Kobrin economy.

In 1795, the third division of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth took place, and the town found itself in the Pruzhany district of the Grodno province of the Russian Empire. It belonged at that time to Count Peter Rumyantsev–Zadunaisky, who later sold the place to Pavel Yagmin.

At the beginning of the 19th century, the estate was bought by Peter Shvykovsky, and then his son Mikhail was the owner here. He owned 1,625 tithes of land. The next owner was Kazimir Shvykovsky.

Mikhail Shvykovsky built a manor house with outbuildings and a park. A stable, a barn, a cheese factory, a cellar and a garden with a pond were erected.

The last owners of the Belousovshchina were representatives of the Chernotsky family. After the Peace of Riga in 1921, the town became part of the Polish state, and the estate was part of the gmina Dobuchin, Polesie Voivodeship, Pruzhany district.

At that time, the owner of the Belousovshchina was Mikhail Chernotsky, who completed the estate and was engaged in household chores.

With the advent of Soviet power in 1939, the estate was nationalized. The Palace building was destroyed in the post-war period. The park and several stone outbuildings have remained to this day.
