Dukstigal Virgin Catholic Church
By 1960, there were two congregations, white Dukstigal and black Dukstigal.
White Dukstigal wooden church on stone walls, built in 1775. From outside it was vertically embroidered with planks, and the roof was made of wooden boards, and a decorative elevation with iron cross was created. The church was surrounded by a garden surrounded by a stone wall fence and gates in red brick posts. Since the Soviet authorities were not allowed to have two churches in one place, in 1960 it was broken, despite the fact that the church was an architectural monument and the oldest wooden church in Latgale, then a 367-year-old building.
The first Catholic Church of Dukstigal was built in 1776 and dedicated to the honour of the Holy Tree. In 1827, the church was completely restored and it existed until 1922, when a new wooden church was built at the time of this church. The church was built, but during the Second World War, on 26 July 1944, the church was burned.
The current wooden church was built in 1947 during the operation of Ludwig Krudan, who bought a large house, which was broken, and the materials were transferred to the black Dukstigal, where the church of the burnt church built the church, drawing it to the honour of the Virgin.
Prayer of the Old Believers of Rachine (Rachine)
The church of the Rechin Old Believers' parish was built in 1912. The construction of the building was led by Sergei Lobzov from Rezekne. The gods have been sanctioned by the honour of the Sv. Nicholas. The Church of Rachine has an unusual way of prayer of the Old Believers - a rectangular corpus on the west side is connected by two lower volumes of pre-premises. The main entrance in the church is through the side facade. The veneer is askietic, the outer walls embroidered with painted boards, the roof covered by a painted tin. Above the roof, a small tower is raised in the eastern part of the roof, which is closed by a small bulb-shaped dome with a cross.
