Saint Basil the Great Monastery in Chełm, Monastery in Chełm, Poland
Saint Basil the Great Monastery features architectural elements characteristic of 17th-century religious buildings, with its stone walls and traditional Eastern Christian design patterns.
The monastery, established in 1640 during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth period, served as a center for the Order of Saint Basil the Great in Eastern Europe.
