I really love this place. I live nearby, I regard it not as a cemetery, but as a park next to my house. A large area, clean, bright, the atmosphere is a little sad and calm (as befits a cemetery). In the summer of 2020, I even went on a tour here, it was very interesting, a place with a history. There is a park nearby, where I like to sit on a bench and read in the summer. Visually, I really like the church and the cemetery gates, I have photographed them a hundred times in different lighting and from different angles. I recommend this place to tourists and those who want to delve deeper into the history of Minsk. If you find a tour of this cemetery, be sure to go!!

One of the oldest cemeteries in Minsk. The place is beautiful, huge trees. It looks atmospheric, a feeling of insignificance of being… There is a beautiful church on the territory.

Calvaria (Calvariae - Golgotha) is the oldest cemetery in the city, it has been operating for about 170 years, but it is said that it is even more venerable. Of course, some crypts and tombstones are in a ruined state, but time devours everything, and this is especially evident here. In general, this is a clean, well-groomed and incredibly interesting place.
