Maria Magdalena Church

Maria Magdalena Church
Minsk, Belarus (BY)
Founded in 1847, this lovely little church with a fine octagonal bell tower and splendid dome was built on the site of an earlier wooden structure. Also on the same territory are, to the left, a small church dedicated to John the Baptist and consecrated in 1995 and, to the right, a chapel dating from 1998. Used as a film, photography and sound archive during the Soviet period, Mary Magdalena Church was the first religious building in the city to be given back to the religious community, the first service taking place on November 25, 1990.
