    Rubezhevichi is a place known from the XIII-XIV centuries. During the period of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the XVI century, not far from this place was the border of the principality - from Brest through Minsk, Novogrudok to the Dvina and Pskov possessions. Hence the name - "boundary". Later, alongside the Rubezheviches, there was another border - the Polish-Soviet border, which lasted until 1939. Today, the Rubezhevychi agro-town is rich in man-made historical monuments: it is the Jewish cemetery, restored by students of the College of Siena (New York, USA) under the direction of Dr. Michael Lozman in 2008, and the burial place of the victims of the Nazi invaders (360 Jews were taken to the forest belt and brutally killed) - "Shlya the Time". Also, the local pharmacy, which specializes in herbal preparations, gained wide popularity. This is a family business, which has existed for more than one generation.
