The Church was built in the early sixteenth century, but in 1618 Paul Stefan Sapieha has allocated a lot of money to the Church was rebuilt, and built a dwelling for Franciscan monks.

In the XVIII century the Church was dismantled to the foundations and rebuilt. Was changed, even the orientation of the altar. The new Church was built in Baroque style and consecrated in honor of St. John the Baptist.

Paul Stefan Sapieha was married four times. To his great regret, his wife died due to unknown reasons, leaving her husband heirs. Only the fourth woman managed to give birth to her husband three daughters and bury Paul Sapieha family in the crypt of the Church of St. John the Baptist next to three of his prematurely deceased young wives.

In Soviet times, the Church, like most Christian churches, through the difficult times. Thanks to Soviet scientists the tomb was saved. Since 1979 it is in the Museum of ancient Belarusian culture of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, however, scientists, unfortunately, are in no hurry to return to her temple.

Recently in the courtyard of the monastery was a monument of the fourth wife of king Vladislav II Jagiello Sophia of Golshany – a progenitor of the Jagiellonian dynasty, which in 2005 would have turned 600 years.

Paul Stefan Sapieha really wanted the monastery was built in the period to August 6, 1618 and promised a good reward builders. Apparently, the money was really serious, because when one of the monastery walls constantly collapsed and disrupted the construction schedule, the master turned to the local witch who agreed to perform a dark ritual that could tame the unruly wall. She said that the ritual will require human sacrifice – let it will be the first of the wives, which will bring lunch to her husband the Builder. Among the workers was a young man, recently married on great mutual love. His wife always came first. He prayed that something made her stop, but she still came first. It and walled up, which never collapsed and was not rebuilt.

Since then, many witnesses saw in the monastery fragile transparent figure dressed in white robes. Bricked up alive in a woman harboring a grudge against all people, especially men. She is able to keep his mind caught in its possession, especially if the man would spend the night in the Tower of Ghosts. Scientists are studying the supernatural phenomenon in Golshany the monastery, but still can not give answers to many riddles. And while White Panna walking the monastery and scares tourists.
