Mscislaŭ, Administrative center in Eastern Belarus
The town of Mstsislaw extends across hills and valleys at an elevation of 203 meters in the Mogilev region of Belarus.
First recorded in the Ipatiev Chronicle of 1156, Mstsislaw grew from a settlement in the Principality of Smolensk to the capital of its own principality by 1180.
The Carmelite Church from 1637 and former Jesuit Cathedral of 1640 display the architectural transitions between Catholic and Orthodox Christian traditions in Belarus.
The administrative center serves a population of 10,019 residents while managing governmental functions for the broader Mstsislaw District of the Mahiljou region.
The town preserves medieval urban planning elements with ancient earthen fortifications and religious structures dating from the 17th century.
