Mosty. St. Elijah's Church.
In the district town of Mosty, Grodno region, a wooden church has been preserved, which is more than a century old. In the very north of the city, an Orthodox church was built at the local cemetery in 1910.
The temple was consecrated in honor of St. Elijah. Initially, the church was assigned to another temple. After the Great Patriotic War, in 1948, the community was registered at the temple as an independent parish. Then the shrine was closed and the building was turned over to the club. After some time, the church was severely damaged by fire.
At the end of the Soviet Union, the building was handed over to believers and the premises were rebuilt. A vestibule was added to the main facade. A four-ring bell tower is built over the vestibule. Onion domes were mounted on round drums: on the bell tower and above the altar part.
Sunday school classes are held at the church and a library is open.
