Church of St. Demetrius of Sołuni. There are no sources that would allow us to establish the exact date of the foundation of the parish and the first Orthodox church in Żerczyce. Although local tradition even speaks of its foundation in 1001, the first mention of the church in documents dates back to 1583. In the 17th century, the church in Żerczyce accepted the union. In 1662, a new church was built in the town, as the older religious building was destroyed during warfare. Another Uniate church was built in Żerczyce between 1726 and 1789.

In 1839, by virtue of the resolutions of the Polotsk Synod, the local parish converted to Orthodoxy and from then on functioned within the Vilnius and Lithuanian Eparchy (from the beginning of the 20th century, the Grodno Eparchy) of the Russian Orthodox Church. In the years 1869–1871, a new church was built for its needs, which survived until the fire in 1944. The currently existing church was built after World War II and is a copy of the previous building.
