    The community of Old Believers in the village of Voitiški was founded in 1740. The first church was a wooden log building without a foundation and with a thatched roof. In the 19th century, the prayer house suffered several fires, it was also damaged during the Second World War, but then restored. In 1979, the building burned down again - after this incident, it was decided to build a brick prayer house. The church complex consists of a fence and a gate, a prayer house and the residential buildings of the clergy. The founders of the congregation have chosen a very beautiful place for the church - a wide panorama of the surrounding area opens from the high shore of Lake Bruņi.
