The first evidence of Jews in Tykocin dates back to 1522, when ten families from Grodno were settled there to promote trade. In 1576, the king granted a general right of settlement, which was confirmed in 1633. In 1800, about 70% of the city's population were Jews, and before the outbreak of World War II, this figure was still around 50%. After the German invasion in 1941, the remaining 1,400 Jews were murdered in the Tykocin massacre in the forest near the town of Łopuchowo.

The Great Synagogue in Tykocin, a Polish town in the Podlaskie Voivodeship, was built in 1642 on the site of a wooden predecessor from the 15th century. The deconsecrated synagogue on Kozia Street, next to the Small Synagogue, has been a protected cultural monument since 1957.

Along with the synagogue in the Belarusian city of Slonim, this is the only synagogue from the 17th century in which the supporting bimah has been preserved almost unchanged.[1]

The baroque-style synagogue was devastated by the German occupiers during World War II and used as a warehouse. The building was renovated in the 1970s.

Today, a Jewish museum is housed in the synagogue building (Wikipedia).

Church of St. John the Baptist and St. Stephen in Choroszcz

Highlight • Religious Site

The first mention of a parish with a wooden church in Choroszcz comes from 22 October 1459.

In 1756, Jan Klemens Branicki, the Grand Crown Hetman, Castellan of Kraków, at the request of the Dominicans built a brick monastery and a church consecrated in 1770. This temple was a single-nave building with a barrel vault, in the sacristy and western porch it had a cross vault, with a square tower at the front. The interior of the temple and the monastery refectory were richly decorated and maintained in the Rococo style[2].

In 1780, there is a mention of a unique coffin reliquary of St. Candida, whose remains were excavated from the catacombs of Santa Agnese in Rome in 1765. Perhaps the Dominican fathers brought the relics to spread the cult of the saint, who was known for his unwavering stance in defense of ideals. This stance was especially valuable in a situation when the specter of partitions hung over Poland.

In 1832, the Dominicans were displaced by the tsarist government to Różanystok, and the parish was taken over by diocesan priests. In 1915, during war operations, the church was damaged. During the reconstruction, the church was expanded, adding two side naves, which fundamentally changed the entire structure. Unfortunately, in 1938, for unknown reasons, almost the entire interior of the church and the roof burned down. In 1944, German troops blew up the tower, which destroyed the vault of the church. In the years 1945–1947 the church was rebuilt. Four bells were installed in the tower, named: Jan, Franciszek, Dominik and Stanisław.

Church of the Resurrection, Białystok

Highlight • Religious Site

The Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Białystok is a relatively new, but important for the local Orthodox community, church, built in the Leśna Dolina housing estate. Built in the 1990s, its architecture refers to the traditions of Old Russian and Novgorod as well as Podlasie sacral architecture. It is distinguished by its central interior plan and characteristic domes. The church continues the tradition of the pre-war Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ.

The church is located on the Green Velo bicycle trail (connector 203).

11th November Square in Choroszcz

Highlight • Historical Site

The 11 Listopada Market in Choroszcz is the central point of the city, acting as the main communication hub that connects Choroszcz with other towns in the commune. The square is surrounded by important buildings, such as the church of St. John the Baptist and St. Stephen and a former monastery, which gives this place a unique, historical character. There is also an obelisk commemorating those who died in the fight for the freedom of the homeland. The market used to be called the 9th May Market, but in 1989 it was changed to the current name, referring to Independence Day.
