Church of Saints Simon and Helena Review

This red church is particularly conspicuous in the white mainstream buildings of Minsk, beautifully shaped and close to the square, is a must-see attraction for leisure visits. Especially when the sun is setting, it reflects more colorful colors.

Just been there and found that my information is different from other people's reviews. Trust me that my information is more reliable because of the local guide commentary and local travel service points. I hope Trip.com can check and correct the error information. Here is my version. Simon and Helena Red Church is telling a sad story: in 1910 a Minsk aristocrat built the Red Church for the young children Simon and Helena, two small towers on the left symbolize the lost children, and the big tower on the right symbolize the sorrow of parents. During the Soviet period, churches were banned, parents fled, children’s graves destroyed, mothers disappeared, fathers died in a foreign country, and only after Belarus gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991 did the father be buried with his children (only one brick left).

This church, we Chinese students call it the "red church", because the color of the church's exterior wall is red. The Red Church is located on this street in независмасти, facing the exit of the subway station. The church is directly in front of a large square. There is also a large fountain in the middle of the square. Every weekend and holiday, it is crowded and very lively. Not to mention inside the church, traditional European architectural style, baroque murals, ancient seats, highly recommended!

The red brick church that is rare in the local area is small and exquisite. The church is a pure white wall. The church is often seen on the commemorative postcards. It is a classic landmark. There is a small square and department store market nearby.

This church has a long history and is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Minsk. Here, you can appreciate the different religious colors, feel the shock of the cathedral, and the baptism of the soul! Come to Minsk, don't forget to visit this place, highly recommended! !
