don't miss new episodes on the belarus 24 tv channel. what a beauty, as if it came from ancient greece or rome from denmark, but this is what it is in perkovichi. our church of the assumption of the blessed virgin mary was built in the classical style. it was built within 10 years, it was also built in the 18th century, it was completed in 1805, and was consecrated at the same time. our church is famous for the fact that uniad bishop kirill terletsky was buried here, whose grave was in the church itself for a long time, but now it is lost, now it is not there. church from the beginning was planned as a catholic church, but at the beginning of the 19th century we had no catholic believers. therefore, the owners

who built the building decided to make it uniate, it was uniate for a long time, until in 1847, before the liquidation of the union, it became orthodox, so the orthodox church survived the first world war, it was active, it survived the second world war, it only did not survive 1961, when it was closed and turned first into a fertilizer warehouse, and then generally... stood in a dilapidated state, so only only in 1990 the church community decided to restore the church, it was restored in a short time, about a year and a half, it was consecrated in november 1990 and is in operation to this day, the church has undergone a good renovation, so it now looks very very good, events are held there religious services, all holidays are celebrated, well , let’s just say it doesn’t... cease to function, this is

our church. in 1914, the first world war began. in 1915, the war came to polesie. german troops launched an offensive to the east, and the residents of perkovich began to prepare for refugee evacuation, because the war was already heading towards the village itself. with pain and crying, people left for... russia, because no one knew whether they would come back or not, and the village was burned. refugees who had a great time in russia, having survived the revolution, having survived the civil war, began to return in small numbers back to their native perkovichi, and then, when the village itself did not exist, people huddled in their homes, people...

huddled in dugouts, it was decided to put cross, showing that christians live here and somewhere in 1921-22 a wooden cross was erected on this very place, which stood safely for quite a long time, but in 1961, when the next persecution of religion began, at night, picked up by a tractor , cross over...

put a new cross. when they started digging a hole to install the cross, the iron cross was found exactly where it was buried in 1961, so when they installed the wooden cross, the old cross was installed at the very top, and the cross was installed again. already in our time, given that 30 years have passed since the establishment of the cross, the current priest and church community have decided to establish it already. the permanent cross, which is now located on the other side of our street, will stand, i hope, for hundreds of years, i personally was lucky with my family, because i heard the first story from my grandmothers, unfortunately, i did not find my grandfathers, my grandmothers experienced, well, let's say, life was probably very stormy, because in their youth, growing up came in...

it was in the 20th century, they all experienced events the 20th century that took place here in polesie, including two world wars, i have always respected this generation. because they had to survive two world wars, well , it’s worth a lot, i can hardly even imagine what they had to go through in these less than 40 years, even in the same 20th century, so since childhood i heard stories that here it was about where fate threw my relatives, my maternal grandmother became a refugee of the first world war and there she lived a rather long life, 93 years died, she kept talking about how the tsar’s daughters olga and tatyana came to her orphanage in sirotsk, she even remembered their names, she even talked about how they approached, what they asked, so, probably, interest just appeared in family level, as long

as i can remember, i remember the railway, even as a small child i remember the smoking steam locomotives that... walked on them, and then the powerful diesel locomotives that pulled both freight cars and passenger cars. in those distant times, during my childhood, the railway, of course, it played a completely different role than it plays now, because now cars have taken away a lot of different opportunities from the railway, but the local railway, which was built under alexander ii, provided work and employment for local residents. someone brought people and goods , someone worked as a switchman, someone worked as a track fitter, in short, everyone had a job, so the life of our perkovichs is very closely connected with the railway, and it must be said that even now modern people

they don’t look at the clock when passenger trains are running, because we know when it’s 1 o’clock when the diesel engine goes to pinsk, when it’s 3 o’clock to brest, and there’s enough work for the railway workers now. it should be noted that, of course, the railway played a big role during the war; our partisans and underground fighters more than once undermined the railway, preventing german trains from transferring equipment and manpower. after the war, the railway was restored and so was i. as a schoolboy, i worked as a track fitter, and to this day i remember the smell of creazote sleepers that hung in the summer air, and the work brought me, as a schoolboy, quite a good income. the railway now means a lot in our perkovichi, the trains

that run along it, well, let’s say, count down the time until today. horses of different armies and different nations rode and galloped along this road, because the road is more than 100 years old, and this part of the village where i am now is called a village. the village was built quite a long time ago, but it must be said that this village was destroyed during the last war, all the houses that we now we see that these are houses built post-war, before the war... it was customary for us to build houses so that the residential building was on one side of the street, on the other side of the street there were barns and various outbuildings and the road that is now visible to us was cleared by people independently, that is, it

was always tidied up and was clean, but in 1944, when the soviet army was knocking out the germans from the territory of belarus, the village burned down, and what we see now are... post-war houses, but the house is now not residential , built in 1948-49, so now it has already been built in a new way, because the house and outbuildings are on the same level. the village was always crowded, after the war it recovered in a fairly short period of time, and this very village recovered. the first, urbanization , which began there 200 years ago, it does not stop, so, probably, this is a general

world process that will continue, but villages, i think, these too will not die out as populated areas, people will live here in the future, it’s just that these people’s activities will probably... change, in which direction, i can’t say, you can improve yourself in any way, so someone improves themselves by choosing career growth, someone chooses material well-being, the same level perfection. i, uh, chose intellectual development for myself, so i don’t think that i’m not getting it here, especially since with modern technologies, with the universal internet, with the development of universal transport, there is actually a big difference between a small or large village and a city no, so even in the level of well-being there is not such a big difference. the great patriotic war rolled like a bloody roller through our woodland, taking its bloody

harvest. almost every family in our village lost someone close to them during this war. and when the war ended, the last battles died down, it was decided to create a mound of memory in honor of those people who died during the war. therefore, in 1965, this mound of memory was built, where 22 names of people who died during the war are inscribed, every year on may 9 people come here children, adults come here, lay flowers, pay tribute to the memory of the dead, the departed, and, probably, this tradition will continue in the future. i came to the obelisk, which is located in the village of litovsk, and this obelisk is too dear to me, because it says here: the name of my deceased grandfather nikifar. before the war, my grandfather nikifor kvachuk

worked as a road worker, cutting trees and filling roads. after the war moved west and the village of litovsk was liberated from the germans, my grandfather was admitted to the army in the summer of 1944 and laid down his head in poland in the fall of the same year , my grandmother anna was left alone with four young sons, but the war did not spare my father, who was then 12 years old, the thing is that the military children of that time also had military toys, so the children in the summer of that the same thing. 944 they found a mortar mine and started playing with this very mine, apparently

they began to dismantle it, as a result a tragic incident occurred, the germans were no longer there, the war seemed to roll back, but the exploding mine buried two children, who were also like my father, 12-13 years old, my father survived, but he had severe... mines in his body. there are few things left from my ancestors, but those things that i take care of, i won’t put anywhere, i won’t throw them away anywhere, because they are dear to me. the first such thing that i especially treasure is my grandfather’s linen shirt. my grandfather anisim died before i was born, but

the only thing left from him, which i am now showing, is a linen shirt, a canvas shirt, which i made with my own hands. why am i saving it? the point is, that for a long time the village people dressed themselves, but this work was terribly hard, so linen. from which this shirt is made was given with the hardest labor, the ground had to be plowed, the flax had to be sown, it had to be weeded, in the fall it had to be pulled out , then it had to be flattened, then it had to be ruffled, then it had to be combed, then it had to be spun into threads, then from these threads it had to be woven into fabric on a home loom, then it had to be bleached; in that era there was no chemical bleaches, so

natural forces, water, sun and wind bleached, then from this bleached fabric we had to sew this very shirt ourselves, so this shirt is a symbol of hard, hard peasant labor, and i will not throw it anywhere and will not leave it anywhere . another thing i will never leave behind is this little book. the new testament from a hundred years ago, which was left from my grandfather. the book is written in pre-reform russian, with interesting performances.

in many ways it is still not known, so the field there is quite a lot of activity here for current and future historians, yes, these are interesting people, yes, these are interesting monuments that remain, yes, these are interesting events that took place here, so the whole complex of these historical materials, little known so far, is still waiting their future researchers.

usa, great britain, europe, they cannot live at their own expense, they must constantly rob and absorb someone. an absolute feeling of impunity and the fact that they can do this. the world is balancing on the brink of the third world war. it’s going on, it’s just going differently, it’s a hybrid war, but events can develop like dominoes. today, not a single expert, not a single politician can predict what will happen.
