History of the development
The first written mention of Varnyany dates back to 1391. In 1462, a church was founded in the village. At the end of the XVI century, Smolensk governor Yan Abramovich founded a Calvinist gathering here, during which a hospital and a school operated. As a result of the third partition of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1795, the Varnyany became part of the Russian Empire. In World War I in 1915, the Varnyany were occupied by German troops. Since 1922 the village has been part of the interwar Polish Republic. In 1939, the Varnyany became part of the BSSR.
