Cathedral of the Epiphany in Polack

The Cathedral of the Epiphany features brick construction with baroque architectural elements, including curved lines and ornate decorative patterns across its exterior walls.

Built in 1761, this cathedral represents a period of extensive religious architecture development in Belarus during the 18th century Eastern European expansion.

The cathedral serves as a central location for Eastern Orthodox ceremonies and religious practices, connecting local residents to their spiritual traditions.

Visitors can access the cathedral through Nizhnye-Pakroskaya Street, where regular religious services and cultural events take place throughout the year.

The building transformed from a religious center to an archive warehouse in 1949, then became a museum of atheism in 1967, and now functions as a concert hall.
