Boruny village is located halfway from Krevo to Golshany. Therefore, if you are planning a trip to the castles, then most likely you will willy-nilly visit these parts. The main attraction in Boruny (by the way, right Harrows) - Church of Saints Peter and Paul, but not the only one. Preserved behind the temple monastery building of the Basilian order.
Basilian monks moved to Boruny from Vishnevo and almost immediately they began to build a stone church (finished by 1753), on the site of a wooden predecessor, but the monastery building was erected later - at the end of the 18th century.
Externally, this building has the features of classicism and is T-shaped two-story building, made of stone with regular facades and rectangular window openings.
At the beginning of the 19th century, a 6-year Basilian school operated at the monastery, where famous writers studied: Khodko, Korsak, Odynets.
In 1833, the monastery was taken over by the Orthodox. From the mid-19th to the beginning of the 20th century, a religious school operated here.
Already in the 20s of the 20th century, the Belarusian teachers' seminary was located in the monastery. The director of which was the educator Simon Rak-Mikhailovsky - a well-known figure in the national liberation movement of the Western Belarus. Around the same time, the temple building was returned to the Catholics.
At the moment monastery building in Boruny arrives in a dilapidated state, but still it still retains the beauty and reflections of a difficult history.
