The Church of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the monastery of brigitok. Founded in 1634, the architecture is early Baroque. A beautiful monastery complex, with a church and powerful walls and an interesting history. Indeed, the decoration of the city. The appearance of this place has not changed over the years. Pay attention to the details of the portals of the entrances and the unusual facade frieze. The interior is renovated, but the main altar has already been restored. Do not forget to inspect the wooden lamus on the territory of the monastery.
The largest and most richly furnished and beautifully decorated Catholic church that I have ever seen on the territory of both Russia and Belarus. I have never seen such a pandemonium of Catholics. Tourists are allowed, but only in the intervals between masses (services). All services (except two services per week) are in Polish. The break between services is 10-15 minutes. I recommend that you definitely visit.
A small but amazingly beautiful and cozy Church in the heart of the city.
Even if you don't go to services, it's still worth a visit.
By the way, on its territory (behind) there is a Lamus - an interesting wooden building, straight from the past. And more recently, a museum.
Великолепный костёл города Гродно! На территории костёла стоит Лямус - самое старинное здание города. А в самом Костёле можно посетить подвалы, которые скрывают очень много истории. Экскурсию по костелу иногда проводит сам ксёндз-каноник Антоний, который знает в историю.
The ancient building of the Brigitte Monastery conceals under its cover the secrets of the history of the city and the lives of people in different eras and at the moment. Divine services are held here, an active church of the Catholic religion. It is located in the very center of the city in an old building, among historical buildings.
Внешне костёл красивый, но внутрь попасть не смогли, было закрыто. Вообще для Гродно это почему-то обыденность не пускать народ в храмы и костелы, что православные, что католические. Нигде в Европе не сталкивалась с такой дискриминацией, там костелы открыты всегда и можно войти любому человеку, не зависимо от его вероисповедания.
Very beautiful. I'm Orthodox, but they let me see it.

Красивый костёл, пока идёт реставрация, так как внутри всё было полностью разграблено и куда-то вывезено. Костёл открывается к шести часам. Он закрыт днём, так как нет возможности нанять сторода
