伯纳丁修道院位于明斯克，是17世纪的历史建筑遗迹，坐落在<a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/1/description">上城区</a>的<a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/2/description">自由广场</a>，邻近<a href="https://findit.city/cn/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/3/description">市政厅</a>和商业街。修道院由安德烈和扬·肯索夫斯基于1624年倡议建立，最初是一座木制教堂，1652年被石砌的圣若瑟教堂和修道院建筑所取代。教堂曾多次遭遇火灾（1644年、1656年、1740年、1835年），但每次都得以重建。到1752年，修道院被彻底重建为巴洛克风格。

到18世纪末，伯纳丁修道院已发展成一个包括许多建筑的完整街区，其中包括兄弟会大楼、食堂、学校、医院、马厩、啤酒厂等建筑。这些建筑被石墙和大门围绕。如今的圣若瑟教堂是一座三廊无塔的巴西利卡，因其巴洛克装饰而显得独特。中央廊拥有双坡屋顶和三面拱壁，侧廊则被十字拱顶覆盖。

1864年，修道院因信徒参与一月起义而被废除。修道院的建筑被转交给军事部门，教堂则被用作档案馆。在二战期间，修道院的庭院成为处决白俄罗斯抵抗组织成员的场所。1983年修复后，教堂被改为档案馆，原修道院建筑内设有检察院、司令部，2014年还开设了“修道院”酒店。

伯纳丁修道院建筑群具有独特的建筑价值，是明斯克历史的重要纪念碑，以其丰富的历史和巴洛克美学吸引着游客。

Bernardine Monastery in Minsk is a historic architectural monument of the 17th century, located in the <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/1/description">Upper Town</a> on <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/2/description">Liberty Square</a> next to the <a href="https://findit.city/en/belarus/minsk/leisure/tourism/sights/3/description">town hall</a> and the trade rows. Founded in 1624 at the initiative of stewards Andrey and Jan Kenskovski, the complex included a wooden church, which was replaced in 1652 by the stone Church of St. Joseph and the monastery building. The church suffered from fires several times (1644, 1656, 1740, 1835), but was restored each time. By 1752, the monastery was thoroughly rebuilt in the Baroque style.

By the end of the 18th century, the Bernardine Monastery had grown into a whole block with numerous buildings, including a brotherhood building, a refectory, a school, a hospital, stables, a brewery, and other structures. They were surrounded by a stone fence with gates. The Church of St. Joseph, now a three-nave basilica without a tower, stands out with its Baroque decor. The central nave has a gabled roof and a three-sided apse, while the side naves are covered by cross vaults.

In 1864, the monastery was abolished due to the involvement of believers in the January Uprising. The monastery buildings were transferred to the military department, and the church became an archive. During World War II, the monastery courtyard became a place of executions for members of the Belarusian resistance. After restoration in 1983, the church was converted into an archive, and the former monastery buildings housed the prosecutor's office, commandant's office, and in 2014, the "Monastic" hotel.

The ensemble of the Bernardine Monastery represents a unique architectural value and serves as an important monument in the history of Minsk, attracting tourists with its rich history and Baroque aesthetics.
