Eliza Ozheshko Memorial Stone

A memorial stone was recently erected here. The inscription on it says that the famous writer and leader of the national liberation movement Eliza Ozheshko lived and worked here. A small outbuilding and part of the park have been preserved from the Ozheshkov estate.

Memorial stone of Yu. Pilsudski

Initially, this stone was installed in a solemn ceremony in the village of Budko, Vileysky district, in 1935. Today, the only surviving monument in Belarus dedicated to Yu. Pilsudski is located in the town of Vileika, where it was moved at the very beginning of the twentieth century. It is stored on the territory of the administration of regional electric networks. Unfortunately, access to the monument is limited for unknown reasons.

Memorial complex of the War of 1812

Here, on the right bank of the Berezina River, in November 1812, the crossing of the Great Army of Napoleon took place, accompanied by fierce battles between the French and Russian armies. The first monument on the famous Brilyovsky field was erected in 1912. It was destroyed in 1920. In 1997, a monument to fallen French soldiers was erected on the riverbank.

Memorial monument

Cemeteries of soldiers of the First World War are located on a hill near the road. An elaborately built memorial monument made of hewn natural stone in excellent condition stands above the graves of German, Austrian, and Russian soldiers. It was built in 1916. An eagle with outstretched wings on a huge cylindrical pedestal has been guarding the ashes of fallen soldiers for more than a century.

Memorial signs and monuments

The village is located on the left bank of the Berezina River. A large-scale crossing of the French troops began in Studenka. In the 1960s, memorial signs and monuments to fallen soldiers of the French and Russian armies were erected here. In 2002, another monument was erected in honor of the fallen French.

Memorial plates

At the very end of the street. Dry, under the shade of old trees, the Jewish cemetery was partially preserved, operating from 1848 until the middle of the twentieth century. The cemetery was gradually destroyed, and by the end of the twentieth century it was completely destroyed. During the Second World War, mass shootings of Jews from Belarus and Germany were carried out here. Today, the tombstones of Matseva, collected from all over the country, are carefully preserved here. Memorial plaques and a very touching monument in the form of a burnt table and chair are placed in a semicircle at the entrance.

The Mikva

Mikheiki

Strangely enough, such modest chapels are quite common in the Slutsk region, built in the features of folk architecture made of wood around the second half of the 19th century. A chapel in Mikheyki can be found at the local ancient cemetery. This chapel was built in 1863 at the expense of local believers by local self-taught architects. It is unknown whether it has been rebuilt since those distant times, but the cross above the shrine is said to have been preserved since its consecration. There is an interesting legend associated with this cross, which I hope to tell you one day.

Mitkovichi

The mounds are behind the village, in the cemetery. But they appeared here much earlier than this settlement. Most likely, they have been here since the time of the burial mounds in Chanovichi, and maybe even older, since the time when there were settlements of our distant ancestors: Yatvyagov, Dregovich and Krivichi. These archaeological sites should be taken under state protection. There are several oak trees in the village itself, about 200-250 years old, which are covered with very interesting legends.

Mill

In 1906, a mill was built from wooden beams, initially powered by a steam engine. After the Second World War, this employee continued to operate as the property of the local collective farm. The partially damaged steam engine was replaced by a new electric one. The mill's log house is in good condition, but the roof needs to be repaired.

Mill

The ruins of a huge windmill have been preserved near the bed of a long-dried river near the village. He's been running on electricity lately. This large-scale building with two high floors of red brick was erected in 1886. The strong walls of the mill could still serve if a person had the desire, means and opportunity to restore them.

Mill

This mill was built, presumably, in the 60s of the XIX century. Local residents also report another date-1883. The building was perfectly preserved and, until recently, successfully fulfilled its main function. The mill has two spacious floors and a huge attic room. Today it serves as a storage facility.

Mill-Kozlovka

In 1920, this Kozlovka mill was built on an open hill. It was built with funds raised by residents of the surrounding villages and several noble estates. The mill's machinery is still in a tolerable condition. It could become an invaluable exhibit for the Museum of Architecture and Everyday life in Strochitsy.

Military cemetery: chapel-tomb of A. Rusau

Perhaps this is the only architectural structure of this type in the city of G G121.. This is the tomb chapel of A. Rusau, who was a military man and, most likely, a Lutheran. The chapel was built on the edge of the military cemetery on Belusha Street from light ochre brick in a retrospective Gothic style at the very end of the 19th century. It is unknown whether the interior of the chapel has been preserved unchanged.

The Jewish cemetery

Cemetery of German soldiers of the 2nd World War

There was a line of defense near this village during the Second World War. Bloody battles were fought on the outskirts of the city of Rogachev and the Dnieper River. Since 2000, the reburial of more than 300 German soldiers who died in the area has been organized in a spacious forest clearing near Khodasovichi.

Orthodox cemetery: gravestone chapel

The wooden Catholic chapel today is located in the middle of the private sector of the village. It was built in the style of folk architecture with elements of classicism in 1861. The small building has a triangular apse, two windows and an entrance, possibly originally decorated with small canopies on pillars. Another chapel in the pseudo-Russian style was built of brick at the expense of Frantiska Zaslavskaya in 1909 and is located at the crossroads near the castle.

Cemetery of soldiers of the 1st World War

There are only a few buildings left of the village with that name. Here you can see the cemetery of the Second World War, located between the villages of Panarki and Voinevichi. The burials are well maintained. There is a monument in the cemetery-an eagle with outstretched wings on a high stone pedestal. The pylons of the cemetery gates have been preserved in the ruins.

Cemetery of soldiers of the 1st World War: monument to German soldiers

There was once a huge burial site of soldiers who died in the First World War. It was founded around the middle of the 1920s. Today there is a meadow on the site of the cemetery. The monument to the fallen German soldiers, topped with a bust of a soldier in a helmet, has been preserved in a dilapidated state.
