The Orthodox Resurrection сhapel is a monument of architecture of the XIX century. It is included in the list of historical and cultural values of the Republic of Belarus.

The brick Resurrection church was erected in 1846 by craftsmen from Kremenchuk (Ukraine) at the expense of believers. A great contribution to the construction of the church was made by the merchant Piotr Karuĺski, who donated significant funds for the temple. In total, 30 thousand rubles were spent.

In 1929, during the anti-religious policy of the Soviet power, the bells were removed from the domes of the Resurrection church, and the temple building was used as a cinema with a hall for dancing and games.

In 1957, by decision of local authorities, the building of the Resurrection church was blown up. According to eyewitnesses, the temple was blown up three times and only for the third time the bell tower collapsed.

The chapel of the destroyed Resurrection church, which is included in the list of historical and cultural values of the Republic of Belarus, has survived to the present day.
