Church of Saint Michael Archangel in Hniezna
Church of Saint Michael Archangel in Hniezna, Gothic Catholic church in Gniezno, Belarus
The Church of Saint Michael Archangel features a single-nave layout with a three-walled apse and a two-tiered octagonal tower at its center.
Built in 1524, the church changed denomination in 1555 under Hieronymus Chodkiewicz's ownership, serving Calvinists until Catholics regained control in 1643.
The structure contains Renaissance architectural elements including decorated cornices, arched windows, and interior ornaments that reflect regional religious traditions.
The church maintains regular religious services and houses a small chapel with historical graves on its grounds for visitors to explore.
A cannonball remains embedded in one of the church walls, marking the impacts of the 1654-1667 war period.
