The monastery Wistytschy ( Вістычы , Vistic, Polish Wistycze, Latin Visticensis abbatia) was one in 1675 (or 1678) of the monastery Wąchock in Lesser Poland from founded Cistercian abbey in Wistytschy , 9 km north of Brest (Belarus) .
history
Cistercians, who had been introduced to Buczeml (Gouvernement Grodno) by Prince Massalski in 1665, settled at the wooden church from the 15th century in Vistychy around 1670 on a foundation of the lord of Vistychy, Eustachius Tyskiewicz. The monastery, which is attributed to the filiation of the Morimond primary abbey through its founding monastery, existed until 1832 when it was abolished with most of the Catholic monasteries in Russia. The church was handed over to the Orthodox State Church in 1866 and used by them. The last habitable remnant of the building served as the sexton's apartment.
The subsidiary founding of the Kimbarowka Monastery (near Mazyr in Belarus ) came from Wistytschy . The Olizarowystaw Monastery in Belarus was also built on the monastery land .

The only preserved towerless, three-aisled, vaulted church was rebuilt in stone in 1748.
