Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Mscislaŭ
Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Mscislaŭ, Baroque Catholic church in Mscislaŭ, Belarus.
The Church of the Assumption features a basilica layout with two symmetrical towers and an altar apse, displaying characteristic Baroque architecture elements.
Initially constructed between 1617 and 1637 for a Carmelite monastery, the church underwent restoration by architect Johann Christoph Glaubitz from 1746 to 1750.
Twenty medieval frescoes within the church walls illustrate biblical narratives and scenes from daily life, representing religious artistry from past centuries.
The church structure, which previously suffered damage and served as a warehouse in 1938, maintains its position as a religious landmark in central Mscislaŭ.
Archaeological investigations in the church basement revealed preserved sections of a collapsed 19th-century vault, suggesting potential undiscovered historical frescoes.
