village derevnoe (Derevnaya in some sources) was first mentioned in the 15th century as part of the possessions of the Gedigoldoviches. The main and most interesting attraction - Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. The temple is located in the very center of the village on the passing highway P54, connecting Columns и pershai. Church in Derevnaya presumably built in 1590, when these lands were owned by the Radziwills.
Initially, it was a defensive temple (Calvinist collection), and at the turn of the 1630s it was rebuilt into a Catholic church. The three-tiered tower was added later, in the second half of the 17th century.
The church can be safely attributed to one of the most interesting places in the Stolbtsy district. Since the temple was repeatedly rearranged and reconstructed, it is difficult to single out a single architectural style. Here you can guess the features of both Gothic and Renaissance.
In front of the entrance to the territory of the Church of the Virgin Mary, there is a typical fence made of rubble stone and a two-arch gate. These elements were built much later. To the right of the temple, bells are placed, it looks unusual.
The temple is active, open to everyone, see the mark on the map:
