Yushkovichi. Trinity Church.

Since 1921, Yushkovichi became part of the Polish state. A wooden church with a tower was built in the cemetery in Yushkovichi in 1918. And during the years of the Polish state, construction of a brick Catholic shrine was begun. In 1936, the church was completed and consecrated in honor of the Holy Trinity.


In the post-war period, during the Soviet years, the church was closed and turned into a grain storage facility. In 1989, the church was returned to the believers. The building was restored and now functions as a Catholic church. The building is quadrangular in plan. The main facade is double-glazed. The towers are multi-tiered, tetrahedral. The church was built with elements of the Romanesque style and classicism. In front of the church there is a Catholic cemetery, which also contains old burials.
