History of the development
The first written mention of the village date back to the XV century. For three centuries Zhuprany were the possession of the Radziwill family. Later it switched to Czapski. In 1854, construction began on a stone church of Saints Peter and Paul. In 1863-1864 local farmers took part in the uprising, which took place at a local marketplace. According to the Riga peace treaty in 1921 Zhuprany became part of the interwar Polish Republic. In 1939 Zhuprany joined the BSSR.
