+ <p>The Catholic Chapel (Bel. kaplica) was built in Antopol in 1838. It was attached to the Gorodets parish church.</p>
+
+ <p>In the 1909 book "Guide to Lithuania and Belarus" by N. Rouba, a chapel in Antopol, Grodno province, is mentioned.</p>

+
+ <p>Given that the chapel belonged to the Gorodecka parish, Kobrin-Rome deanery, it is worth looking at the surviving metric books for the area on the FamilySearch website from 1706 to 1866.</p>

+
+ <p>On the Schubert and Rittich maps of 1866–1890, the chapel was not marked.</p>
+
+ <p>At the time of the II Rzeczpospolita (1918–1939), in the book "Grzegorz Rąkowski; Smak Kresów; Czar Polesia, Rewasz 2001", the church in Antopol is already mentioned as the Catholic Church of St. Andrzej Boboli. It was reconstructed from a chapel in 1938. The funds were raised by Maria Rodziewiczówna. The church was consecrated by Bishop Kazimir Bukraba of Pinsk. In 1939, with the arrival of Soviet power, the church was closed.</p>
+
+ <blockquote>
+ The Catholic Church of St. Andrzej Boboli was founded (in our case reconstructed from a chapel) in 1938. ... It is a box-like structure on a rectangular plane, devoid of details, with a flat facade, above which rises a quadrangular tower covered with a flat roof.
