This place has its own character and even style - I advise all Belarusians to visit - this is our story! It's hard to believe that it was possible to build such beauty with your hands.
Euphrosyne has a warm, light heart and does not want to leave.
She answers all your aspirations, you just have to sincerely ask and wait with patience.
Visit her more often...

Very beautiful. Grace. I recommend everyone to visit. The morning service begins at 7 o'clock. It is advisable to come earlier at 6.40. To touch the Holy Relics.
A quiet, peaceful monastery with Holy relics and intercession of the Belarusian land. You always feel a surge of new strength after visiting the monastery.

Take into account the peculiarity of the attire when visiting. So everything is quiet there, super

Nicely. At least on the outside. A tour guide is highly recommended. Otherwise, apart from the appearance, nothing is impressive. And there's a story here.
The monastery is constantly open. At the entrance, you can correct the dress code, there are shawls and all sorts of trousers and skirts available here. The smallest church is a must-visit inside the 12th-century rapture fresco.
You enter the monastery through the gate and immediately see 3 temples. The church, which is almost 1000 years old, Spaso-Preobrazhensky, stands right there. In 2022, there is a restoration, they are preparing for the great anniversary of the monastery, which will be 900 years old in 2025. It is there that the ancient frescoes and cells of St. Euphrosyne are located. Groups are not allowed there, but 2-3 people can go in for a few minutes. On the right, the Church of St. Euphrosyne, is also closed. And here on the left is the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, there are services. Every day at 10.00, 12.00, 14.00 akathists at the relics of the saint. The refectory is outside the gate, but everything is on schedule. Either the groups agree in advance or lunch is only at 13.30. So everyone goes to the cafe for rolls. I don't know how it is here on weekends, but there are few people on weekdays. The sisters on the akathist sing with heavenly voices, who can sing along with them. Holy Euphrosyne, pray to God for us!
An ancient monastery, a large and well-maintained territory, a church shop, temples and a cathedral. The place is bright and spiritual, you can explore the ancient frescoes and shrines of the monastery. I recommend a visit.
The incredible story of Princess Euphrosyne of Polotsk. Do not forget when visiting that this is an active monastery, so hats and skirts for women are necessary. And shorts for men are taboo.
