Vitsebsk

There are a lot of legends in the city of Vitebsk related to the Holy Assumption Cathedral. According to one of them there is an underpass in the temple leading to the Western Dvina River. Although, in fact it was not at all an underpass, but a sort of drainage system, built during the construction of the Holy Assumption Cathedral. Thanks to it the ground waters were removed from the basement of the temple to the Western Dvina River. The height of the vaults was such that one could pass to the utmost.

Thank you Anastasia from Belarus for this card
