12 марта 2018

Now the tomb of the magnate family, which is located in the dungeon of the church is closed to tourists. In order to ensure that the world heritage of UNESCO is not under threat, experts visited the affected site.

Despite the flooding, the sarcophagi didn't suffer. The coffins were saved by the fact that several years ago, the sarcophagi were placed on an oak platform.

Nevertheless, the walls are filled with moisture. This is a Baroque monument of the 16th century, the value of which is recognized by the international community. The shrine is listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO. The Church is in the communal property of Nesvizh District. Local authorities have already purchased equipment to deal with the consequences of flooding.

Restoration works are conducted since 2010 and, by the way, this year the waterproofing of the object has been completed. The Advisory Group will arrive in Nesvizh on Wednesday. Experts will make a conclusion and give recommendations to eliminate the problem.
