The author is the academician of the Russian Academy of Arts D.Grimm. A bronze bell, weighing a ton (one of the largest in Belarus), received as a gift from the Belarusian Railways, was ascended on the bell tower of the temple in 2001.
The Terespol Gate was one of the four gates leading into the Citadel of the Russian Brest Fortress. It was designed in a classic style in the early 19th century. It faces the Bug River. A suspension bridge was built here in the early 19th century to span the Bug River. The bridge was badly damaged in 1915 during World War I. Another bridge built here before 1941 was ruined during World War II.
