Belarus: 1-2

This postcard was from a private swap with Tens and shows Cavalry officers in uniform in 1812 during the Napoleonic Wars. The stamp is called Merry Christmas! and was released on the 9th December 2008.

 

This next card is BY-103966 and shows the Monument in honour of Victory of War 1812 and the Chuch of St. Blessed Prince Alexander Nevsky which are in Kobryn. The prince was born in 1220 and died in 1263. I can't find the date the church was built so if anyone knows, please leave a comment.

The first stamp is from the Wild Animals issue, shows a European Mink and was released on the 10th June 2008. The second stamp is from the Garden Flowers issue, shows Tulips and was also released on the 10th June 2008. The third stamp is from the Wild Animals issue and shows a Hare.
