Kaloža Church, Orthodox church in Hrodna, Belarus
The stone church stands on the high bank of Neman River, featuring walls decorated with polished stones and glazed ceramic tiles.
Built in the 1180s during the reign of Prince Mstislav Vsevolodovich, the church was dedicated to Saints Boris and Gleb, his deceased brothers.
The interior contains numerous ceramic vessels embedded in the walls and vaults, creating exceptional acoustics for male choir performances during Sunday services.
Located near Castle Hill, the church conducts religious ceremonies including weddings and baptisms, with regular services held throughout the week.
The building combines Byzantine temple architecture with Eastern Slavic construction techniques, using a cross-domed structure with three semicircular apses.
