    <p>Belin was first mentioned as part of the estate of the Pinsk princess Maria Hasztold at the end of the 15th century. In 1522 there is a mention of Prince Fedor Ivanovich Yaroslavich of Pinsk to the Cathedral of St. Dmitry in Pinsk (tribute and payments from the "Bolince"). In 1555 it was mentioned in the letter of Queen Bona Sforza to Matej Vojtechovich as a village in the Pinsk starostvo. In 1565 it belonged to Pinsk district, Brest voivodeship.</p>

    <p>The church in Belin was built in 1785 by the Orzeszko family. This is confirmed in the "Description of churches and parishes. Grodno Orthodox Church Calendar. Volume 1". However, the information that in 1880 the church fell into disrepair is not correct.</p>

    <p>In 1811 Belin is mentioned as the property of Hadkiewicz (The Earl of).</p>

    <p>The earliest mention of the church is found in the list of Uniate ministers. In 1832 it is listed as a chapel attached to the Osow church.</p>

    <blockquote>
        Hreczka Bazyli (Гречка Василеи), *1759. Of aristocratic origin. Apostolic priest; lives in Belin of Kobryn district. 28.04.1798.<br>
        Mother Mariana, *1737; Marianne, sister, *1793; wife Praksed?, *1774; daughters: Kristina *1793, Anna *1795, Marianna *1797.
    </blockquote>

    <blockquote>
        Kuzminsky Yustin (Ustin), *1800. Chaplain of the chapel in the village Belin of Kobryn district (attached to the church in the village of Vosauka) 1832-1836.
    </blockquote>

    <p>In 1858 Belin belonged to Kalikst Orzeszko. In 1863 the authorities created local self-defense detachments in Belin against the participants of the uprising. On 06.05.1863 near the village there was a battle between the detachment of Romuald Traugutt and tsarist troops.</p>

    <p>At the time of the II Rzeczpospolita (1918–1939) it is marked on maps as a functioning chapel. After World War II the chapel fell into disrepair and was not preserved.</p>

    <p>The approximate location of the former chapel can be seen on modern maps.</p>
