Description:

In 1612, near the source of the estate was built Krupets chapel. Several centuries remained the main chapel of the local Orthodox Christian church. In 1858 at the initiative of the governor of Minsk on donations next to the chapel building was erected the Holy Cover church.

After the bolsheviks came to power in 1924 the church was closed, and in 1936 and completely destroyed. Also, an attempt was made to fill the source.

In 1997, the Holy Cover church was rebuilt, and since it holds regular service.
