Geocache Description:

(LT) Serijos „Aplink Lietuvą“ lobis Švenčionyse.
(EN) The cache in Švenčionys is a part of the series „Aplink Lietuvą“ ("Around the Lithuania").




(LT) Švenčionyse stačiatikių parapija įsteigta 1842 metais. Švenčionių Švč. Trejybės cerkvė pastatyta 1898 m. caro valdžios ir parapijiečių lėšomis. 1928 m. atliktas kapitalinis remontas. 1945 m. parapijoje buvo 158 tikintieji. Sovietų valdžia ją įregistravo 1947 m., tuo metu tebuvo 85 parapijiečiai. Cerkvė yra bizantiško-rusiško stiliaus, savo išvaizda ir išplanavimu analogiška Vilniaus Dievo Motinos ikonos „Ženklas iš dangaus“ cerkvei. Įėjimas veda per verandą su dekoruotu baldakimu, kurį vainikuoja kupolas ir ažūrinis kryžius. Virš prieangio yra varpinė, taip pat dengiama kupolo. Dar keturi kupolai yra virš cerkvės navos, su eilėmis pusapvalių dekoratyvių langų. Visa cerkvė dažyta baltai, dekoruota dangaus spalva. Vidaus interjeras - XX a. pirmos pusės.

Lobis - tai PET preforma su žurnalu ir pieštuku. Palikite lobį tokioje pat padėtyje, kaip radote.
