Mir. Zaslavsky Chapel.

The stone chapel of the Zaslavskys was built in the center of the town of Mir in Korelichi district. The monument is located in front of the castle at the crossroads. It was built during the Russian Empire in 1909.


 The monument is a small building, has the shape of a square in the plan. It is covered with a copper roof on which a cross is installed. The monument was erected in a non-Russian style.


 The chapel was built in honor of Vladimir Frantsevich Zaslavsky, who died in March 1909 at the age of 37. The temple was built on the site of a wooden chapel at the crossroads near the Radziwill Castle itself. The chapel was built on the foundation of a local philistine Frantishka Zaslavskaya, who built this small church in honor of her son. Above the entrance to the temple there is a plaque with the following inscription: "This chapel was built by Frantishka Zaslavskaya for the repose of her son Vladimir Frantsevich Zaslavsky in 1909."

According to some sources, it is known that Vladimir Zaslavsky was severely beaten by the Cossacks, from which he died.


It is possible that the chapel was built on the land that belonged to the Zaslavsky family. In Soviet times, the land from the lake to the forest was called Zaslavshchyna by the locals.

Chapel has the status of an architectural monument.
