Hlynne

Hlynne lies in the wooded and marshy country of Polesia, south of the Pripet basin. Its earliest written mention dates to 1451. The village belonged to the estate of Davyd-Haradok, and its church was built in 1716. In the early nineteenth century the nearby estate of Yuzefin was associated with the Radziwiłł family, whose possessions extended across much of the region.
