Golshany Ghosts

 One of the most famous mysterious places in Belarus is Golshany. You can meet two ghosts there - the black monk and the white lady .

The White Lady is not very friendly . The story of the White Lady is a very tragic one. Four centuries ago Paul Stefan Sapieha, the owner of Golshany, gave money to build a Catholic church and a monastery. The date of consecration was appointed to the August 6, 1618. The builders worked hard, but one of the walls of the monastery collapsed all the time. And they decided  to bring a secret sacrifice - one of the wives of the builders, who would come first to her husband to bring him lunch. The most beautiful wife of a young builder came, and she was bricked into the wall. Now her ghost can be seen in the ruins of the castle.


Another legend describes a poor young man Gremislav Valyuzhinich who loved charming Princess Hanna-Gordislavu Golshanskaya. The girl also fell in love with the young man. Gremislav dressed like a monk's to see his beloved one. But the husband of Princess got to know about their secret meetings and killed them both. Since that time there is no rest to the Black Monk.
