Church of St. Archangel Michael in Smorgon

The Church of St. Michael the Archangel is a monument of Renaissance architecture with elements of defensive architecture. It was built as a Calvinist congregation (temple) with funds fromY. Zenovichin 1552-53. From 1621 - Trinity Church, in 1866-1921. - St. Michael's Church. In 1990 transferred to Catholics. The burials of the princes Zenovich are preserved in the crypts of the temple.

The plan is a stretched octahedron. The internal space is covered with a spherical dome, the base of which is disguised by an attic, richly decorated on all sides with blades and paired semicircular niches and weights.

In contrast to the attic, most of the temple is made in strict forms. The monumental squat tower, through which access to the inside of the building is provided, has a defensive character. The same purpose is a small semicircular turret with narrow loophole windows, placed at the junction of the main tower with the temple.
