History

The village's origins were as a Ruthenian settlement within the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Jełowicze together with the neighbouring hamlet of Bożeniec,^[2] belonged through the 14th and 15th-centuries to the Ruthenian Jełowicki family, whose name dates from the 14th-century and recalls their ownership of the domain.^[3] With the signing of the Union of Lublin in 1569, it became part of the Lithuanian-Polish commonwealth. The village baroque church built in 1669, was founded by a Lutsk judge, Samuel Dołmat Isajkowski [pl] for the Dominican Order.^[4] Following the Partitions of the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth, the territory was occupied by the Russian Empire and the religious oder was suppressed, turning the abbey church into a parish church.^[5] After World War I Jałowicze became part of the Second Republic of Poland.^[5] The Soviet invasion of Poland, led to its incorporation into the Soviet Union.

Notable features

• Jałowicze fortified castle was erected in the 14th-century. In the 17th century, the remnants of the castle were integrated in a Dominican abbey. Subsequently, fragments of the abbey walls became the priests house.^[5]
