The unique fortress temple of the XVI century. Most modern historians agree that the date of construction should be considered 1524 and it is for this reason that in September- October 2024 a string of official celebrations took place on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the village of Murovanka. There are artifacts that indicate the existence of a worship building at this place in a much earlier period. In recent years, a lot has been done to preserve the unique shrine of Belarus: emergency trees have been removed, the laying of an authentic stone fence according to an approved project is being completed, the process of repairing and restoring the temple from the outside has been completed, the territory around the church is constantly being improved, the restoration process inside is being prepared. In 2014 and in October 2024, UNESCO specialists visited the temple, expressing their thoughts and wishes about the preservation of the unique architectural monument. The temple in Murovanka is on the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative list. In the autumn of 2024, the official cancellation ceremony of the postage stamp with the image of the temple in Murovanka took place.

It is a very beautiful temple. It's an Orthodox church, but there are plaques and a monument in Polish. A historical place. It is mandatory to visit. You can climb the tower for a donation.

A great place to visit on the way to or from Grodno! Everything here is steeped in history and comfort. You can climb the tower! Unfortunately, they don't let you into the basement and the secret passage! Friendly people work in the church shop! Be sure to come and see the wonder of architecture!
