Pralniki - is a village of Valozhyn district, Minsk region of Belarus. The main and in fact the only attraction and landmark of the village of Pralniki is the Orthodox church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. This temple was built in the village of Pralniki in 1805 from bricks and natural stone. According to another version, the church was built in 1850. The architectural style of the temple is late classicism. This temple was originally erected as a family chapel-burial vault for local nobles, and is located in the cemetery in the center of the village of Pralniki. The most notable feature of the church is that it is shaped like a round tower. The walls are one and a half meters thick. From some angles, the temple in the village of Pralniki looks much more like a defensive tower of a castle than a church. At the moment, the temple is not yet functioning. The restoration and restoration of the Orthodox church is underway. However, it should be noted that the work is progressing very, very slowly. The Orthodox church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in the village of Pralniki is an interesting landmark and attraction of Belarus, an architectural monument of the early 19th century, as well as a cultural and historical value of the country. The fact that very few round temples have survived in Belarus adds to the special significance of this church.
