Voroncha is an agro-town on the border of the Grodno region. Located near the highway P5 Baranovichi-Novogrudok. The settlement is quite old and was mentioned for the first time in the middle of the 17th century as a possession Stefan Curch. Of the attractions here, it is worth highlighting the stone Church of St. Anne, which appeared in the town of Voroncha in 1781.
The construction of the temple was funded Jozef Neselovsky since 1773. The church has no apse and features late classicism and baroque elements. The facade is distinguished by a six-column portico with two false niches. The temple is dominated by 2 three-tiered towers united by a triangular pediment with a semicircular window.
It is interesting that there is no road as such to the church of St. Anne, the building seems to be isolated.
At the end of the 18th century, in Voroncha, there was manor Merzheevsky. The manor house has not survived to this day. Like the church, in 1943, the partisans burned the building. For almost 50 years, the temple stood in disrepair, but in the early 90s it was restored and returned to the Catholics.
If you walk around the church, you can see a small cemetery with massive tombstones.
And on the reverse side there is an unusual memorial plaque. In the upper part there are coats of arms of various gentry families that were related to Voroncha.
At the very bottom there is a symbol - adam's head (a symbol of death or fearlessness before it).
Voroncha will also be interesting for its Catholic cemetery, which has very interesting sculptures. And near the lake, a brovar of the 19th century has been preserved, but most likely it will not be possible to visit it, since it is located on the territory of a local enterprise.
Near these places you can see wooden church и church in Gorodishche. More sights of Belarus on the map.
