Visit the 'Boris and Gleb' Church or simply Kaloza Church which was built on top of the 12th century`s church in the 15th century. Hope that does not sound confusing. ;)
This one of seven Belarussian wonders is sitting on top of Zamkovaya mountain.
The side you see on the pic basically is what`s left of the original church cause in 1853 its south and west sides collapsed into Neman river as a result of a landslip.
The story of the church is such:
Long time ago two noble men Boris and Gleb took in captivity citizens of Russian town Kaloza. The prisoners were brought to Hrodna where they were allowed to build a church for themselves. The church was named after Boris and Gleb of course, but people just called her Kaloza, after the name of their long lost home.
