Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Murafa. The late Baroque temple and monastery buildings were built for the Dominicans by Joachim Karol Potocki. After the Treaty of Riga, Murafa found itself within the borders of the USSR. Despite the repression and persecution of the Catholic Church by the Soviets, many valuable pieces of equipment were preserved in the church. At the end of the 1930s, the church was taken away from the faithful and a granary was created in it. Thanks to the commitment of the chairman of the village council, looting of the property and devastation of the interior was avoided. In 2022, the church became known as the Shrine of Our Lady of Murachov.
