The Church of St. Nicholas is an Orthodox church and a monument of Belarusian vernacular architecture. The first mention of the church dates back to 1682, but in 1738, on the occasion of a fire, a new, medium-sized, wooden building without a dome, with an iron cross on the roof, was erected. After another fire, the church had to be rebuilt in 1771. In 1839 the church, which was then a Uniate (Greek Catholic) church, was converted to Orthodoxy.
The Orthodox Church of St. Nicholas was built in wood from 1980 to 1982. The previous wooden church was dismantled in the 1960s. The modern building is a short distance from the old foundation.
St. Elijah's Church is an Orthodox church built of wood in 1828, the church did not close during its existence, and was rebuilt in the 1990s and 2010. The main façade has a gallery with four pillars.
The Church of the Protection of the Blessed Virgin is an Orthodox church built between 2010 and 2015.

In May 2014, the icons of the "Shroud" and the "Inexhaustible Cup" were delivered from Mount Athos to the temple. The building is made of brick, its domes are made of titanium.
