Bilokorovychi

Bilokorovychi lies in the wooded lowlands of Polesia, in the country between Olevsk and Korosten. Archaeological traces around the village attest to settlement in the region long before the modern town. An icon of the Mother of God associated with Bilokorovychi is traditionally said to have appeared in 1545, and became an object of Orthodox devotion in the surrounding countryside.
