In Dory stands the Church of the Intercession of the Most Holy Mother of God, built in 1997. Following reconstruction, it was consecrated on June 28, 2026. The church is located in Dory in the Volozhin District of Minsk Region.
History
The former church in Dory had a floor plan in the shape of an elongated cross, a bell tower with a gable front, and an open dome. Inside, there was a single-nave iconostasis with 13 icons in a row. Repairs to the former church took place in 1866 and 1874.
The memorial site in Dory includes the exposed and raised remains of the former church. A memorial plaque is mounted on the exposed foundation. The names of the victims are inscribed on a stele; its base serves as a support for bronze mourning wreaths. Four-metre-high sculptures of mourning women at the memorial site symbolize maternal grief, the grief of widows, and female grief in general.
