The Church of the Protection of the Theotokos in Turets stands in Turecki Sieĺsaviet, blending Russian Revival architecture with classic Orthodox features. The building displays characteristic vertical lines and intricate ornamentation on its exterior walls.
The sanctuary emerged as an expression of Orthodox faith deeply rooted in this region for centuries. Its construction marked an important phase in Belarus' religious history.
